The Sagrada Familia has a “stone forest” inside
Gaudí designed the interior columns to resemble trees reaching toward the sky, creating a forest effect.
Each column is made of different materials depending on the weight it supports: basalt, granite and marble. In addition, its branches branch out towards the ceiling, distributing the natural light that enters through the stained glass windows and giving the sensation of being in an enchanted forest.
The organ of the Sagrada Familia is the only one in the world
The main organ has 1,492 pipes, some of them up to 10 metres long, and is designed to fill the basilica with enveloping sound. Gaudí even planned for music to be an essential part of the spiritual experience of the place, connecting sound with light and architecture.
The amazing thing is that this organ can be controlled from different points inside. These stories make the interior of the Sagrada Familia an unforgettable experience, full of details that reflect Gaudí's genius.

Did you know?
Did you know that the Sagrada Familia still uses Gaudí’s original plans? Although construction is still underway, the plans and models that Gaudí left before his death in 1926 are used. Many were rebuilt after being destroyed in the Spanish Civil War.
Did you know that the Nativity façade is the only one completed by Gaudí? Before his death, Gaudí personally completed this façade, full of naturalistic details, to serve as a guide for future architects.
Did you know that the towers of the Sagrada Familia are inspired by the Montserrat mountain? Gaudí was inspired by the irregular shapes of this famous Catalan mountain to design the towers, giving them their unique appearance.
Did you know that the Sagrada Familia will be the tallest church in the world? When completed, the Torre de Jesús will reach 172.5 metres, making it the tallest religious building, but Gaudí wanted it to be one metre lower than Montjuïc, out of respect for God's work.
