this is not a masterpiece. A masterpiece is the Taj Mahal or the Sainte Chapelle. these building are elegant, honest in their conception and development. The Sagrada Familia is a cheat. Full of arrogance, but empty of humanity. Only a small part belongs to the genius of Magister Gaudi. The rest are fireworks.
Bwanamino Plis You are mistaken. The builders tasked with inheriting Gaudi’s vision are masters in their own right with impressions that would make Gaudi proud.
Actually the plans were burned at the War by the republicans, that broke the models too. So, most of the building is invented by megalomaniac architects. The result is a huge pagoda. I'm sure that if Gaudi could see this, he would have got a big depression. I think that the best to do is just stop the work. Now it is already beauty. Sorry my poor english :C
BOB.org I strongly disagree. I’ve seen uglier, sloppier, lazier, and far more inelegant cathedrals and houses of worship throughout Europe, if not the world......the added impression augmented into the Sacred Family reflects a mature interpretation of Gaudi without carbon copy replication of the original.
I'm agree with BOB.org . In this building, beauty has been tried to reach by accumulation and height. The result is a mess. I live in a city with a beautiful gothic cathedral. It was very difficult to build, but, when you see it, it is easy to interpret. When you are into the cathedral you feel quiet, in peace, happy. I'm sure that when you are into the Sacred Family you don't feel in the same way. . And, honestly, the outside is a nightmare.
I am from Belgium and went to University in Spain and lived about a kilometer from La Sagrada Familia. What most people don’t realize is that Gaudí did not use any straight lines in his architecture. I wish some of these overloaded billionaires around the world would put some of their money into finishing this unbelievable piece of art/architecture. I’m now 66 yrs old and I always hoped I would see it completed, but guess not. But thanks for this wonderful video. Before today I had only seen this in 2d. Thank You!!
The exterior will be truly impressive when “complete”. But I will argue that the most amazing thing about La Sagrada Familia is the interior. It is simply breathtaking.
That's a lot more than I was expecting. It just keeps expanding. That last tower kinda blew my mind. But honestly, the design is incredibly messy. Hard to even say what I'm looking at.
@@theperfectpeanutbutterjell7553 It'd be less painful then if it's multiple needles. Pain works like that for some reason, if you have 1 singular needle and you stand on it, it will hurt. However if there is multiple I think because the pain is sorta just spread out evenly or some shit like that.
Segrada Familia is a very religious building. Not just for the statues on the walls but the architecture itself... The 12 thin towers around the edges in groups of 4 represent the 12 disciples. The Larger tower at 0:12 represents Mary. The four towers close to the centre are John, Luke, Mark and Mathew. The final largest tower represents...you guessed it...the main man Jesus. Also the statues around the walls show the life of Jesus from birth to death to resurrection.
lukassnakeman it’s structural calculations were based on weighted ropes. Those were pulled toward a single point which made them „pointy“. It is gravity that had a thing for pointy bits, not Gaudi.
Even though it is still being built, when I visited this October of 2018 it was a transformative experience. I took two separate tours (one a guided tour from an outfit located just across the street; the second a self-guided tour where you ascended via elevator to the top of one of the huge disciple spires then walk down in a neighboring spire through a stunning spiral staircase open on the inside). The inside of the cathedral has pillars shaped like stone trees holding the ceiling up. Even if all the other elements (the last 4 disciple spires, the larger 4 apostle spires, and the largest central Jesus spire) take another 15 years to complete, a visit now is entirely worthwhile. Barcelona’s old gothic district and its famous Gaudi structures are truly a memorable experience. Good planning can also benefit from seeing human towers (castellers) as different Catalonian towns have their own teams (with towers going up 6-7 tiers high and only supported by people standing on each other’s shoulders).
Sagrada Familia is truly a sight to behold. When I lived in Spain a couple months ago I stayed in an apartment right next to it. I loved walking out to see this beautiful building each day. Truly miss waking up to it each day.
I went there. The only way I can describe it is that Gaudi wanted to play with the light. The walls are white, the stones are shimmering in the ceiling many dozens of meters above you. The stained glass casts a rainbow of colors across every surface, and the walls are white as if Gaudi was playing with the light, painting with it, every moment of every day in a slightly different and unique way depending on the way the sun was positioned, the people, etc. You sit in the pews and understand how this is meant to be a holy a place. A place to see God.
I read the comments and it reminds me of this same thing in Paris "We come, we writers, painters, sculptors, architects, lovers of the beauty of Paris which was until now intact, to protest with all our strength and all our indignation, in the name of the underestimated taste of the French, in the name of French art and history under threat, against the erection in the very heart of our capital, of the useless and monstrous Eiffel Tower"
Thats funny, cause the Eiffel Tower was going to be built in Barcelona But they decline the project, If I remembers well, cause the price and amount of Iron needed Just for a sculpture was too high. What an Irony that they decide to build this few years later, and still paying and building It.
@Hasi Mausi I disagree with everything you said. Not that it matters, people are hating this design because they're used to its unfinished look and once they get used to its final appearance they'll love it, exactly like what happened with the Eiffel tower.
There absolutely no way that will be finished by 2026, but hopefully in my lifetime (Im 46). Saw it last week, couldn't believe how big it was up close.
I saw it twenty years ago and then a picture of the finished plan...it is amazing and people will come to love the unusual shape...unbelievable detail and design...
In my opinion because of the four towers surrounding the main huge one it fits perfectly, the four parallel ones basically mark a side and, despite being made at different movement eras it still gives a sign of impression
Absolutely beautiful. The artistic and physical manifestation of man's unquenchable thirst and desire to reach out in search of the divine. It is also quite ironic. It helps us to realize that what you have been working and striving for, so diligently and for so long to achieve, has been there all along. It's always been within you; as within the church walls. Glorious work. Nothing is placed out of reach for the created...for you are the beloved. Glorious!!!
Putting aside religion, ethnicity, culture, how the hell people would dislike it instead of appreciating the sheer devotion to constructing one of the world's wonder is beyond me.
that's exactly the point, gaudì is one of the most famous art nouveau artists, even if i don't like it i really admire how he managed to imitate nature
Una obra maestra de la arquitectura moderna. Para mi, así sin terminar, ya es candidata a ser una de las siete maravillas del mundo moderno. Genio Gaudí..
WOW! Saw it before the olympics and years after and it was stunning then but this really shows how impressive it will be when finished and this animation is probably the nearest I will get to seeing it completed. Thanks!
Pretty impressive but I think the spires at 0.45 are too much and I reckon it'd look amazing with a dome instead of the massive centre spire. But thats just me
I'm astonished about the critical comments here. I've been to the building site in 1984, 1998 and 2005 and seen the progress - and looked at Gaudí's other buildings in Barcelona. He had a very particular and unmistakable take on Art Nouveau which I find pure genius - including his approach to statics. This building is truly unique in the world. Construction is planned to be finished by 2026, 100 years after Gaudí's death. I hope they'll manage it so I can see the finished building. To be honest - if anything terrible happened to Sagrada Familia, it would hurt me infinitely more than the blaze at Notre Dame did.
I saw it in 1999. Scary stuff, walking up the spiral staircases, when you saw just how thin the walls were. One good push of a block and there's nothing between you and a long fall. Gotta have a lot of trust in the architects and builders. Anyway, see it while you can. Later generations can never see it in construction, only the finished building. The day after you visit, it will be a different building. So you can be a part of its history - and all the more so because your entrance fee helps to finance the construction, so you will always be part of the building story.
Gaudi's masterpiece is the symbol of what a Man can do when he surrenders himself to God The majesty and glory of this church does not come from how frivolous or tall or ostentateous it is but from how it is actually humble .All of the glory and beauty of it is dedicated exclusively to worship the Lord of Hosts and Maker of All and His Infinite and Perfect Love . The building is not centered on itself or on its designer but on the one that made Man and saved him from Evil and that is what made Antonio Gaudi such a mega genius and designer of one of the greatest works of Art in Human History .Beauty dedicated to He who defined Beauty .Lovingly built to the One who is Love . When I first saw it , I became a bit obsessed .And I always want to return .

robert111k estas insultando una gran construcción Española que está costando mucho por el desafío arquitectónico que conlleva hacerla y tú vas y dices que es una horterada.
Rubén Yáñez Ferrer, a las construcciones no se las insulta. Yo estoy manifestando, más o menos crudamente, una opinión estética. Cuando vi la Sagrada Familia, hace bastantes años ya, me pareció preciosa. Pero esta cosa en que la están convirtiendo, parece ser que siguiendo los planos de Gaudí, no sé si fielmente o no, me parece algo abigarrado, recargado, sin sentido... En fin: hortera.
...and for those who complain it is too much you probably lack imagination. I am also of the belief less is more but this creation is an exception. You can only really appreciate it close up and seeing the details. Much more interesting than any of these new glass super towers and the like.
I'm so sad that it wouldn't have the same colour due to stone aging, some part of it would be darker than the other. Hope they clean everything out in the end.
The thing is, it's not entirely because of aging that the parts look different. Several different types of sandstone from all around the world have been used (mostly because the original sandstone source has slowly run out over time). So simply cleaning it out is useless; rather, I think that there's a kind of beauty to that variety of colour, as it shows the generational and international collaboration of the project
When I was very young (50 years ago), I thought it was ugly - not realizing that it was unfinished. Now that it is 99% finished, I think it is the most BEAUTIFUL church in the world! ✨❤✨
Remarkable! If you find Antoni Gaudi's seminal, idiosyncratic and thoroughly baroque style of organic architecture too busy, then remember that he didn't design every church and certainly not every building to have been built. His efforts enrich modern architectural and art history, and must enthrall both visitors to and residents of Barcelona alike.
Very good projection, Gaudí is one of my favorite architects, one question, what's the name of the song used for this video?, thank you, greetings from Chile :)
I'm so excited to see this giant church finished. I want to go to Barcelona in 2026 (the time expected to be finished) just to see this giant church finished. Tbh, the architecture is absolutely creative. Gaudi makes very awesome and fascinating architecture that is literal eye candy. The architecture on the facades and inside of the church is just... amazing. It does a very great job telling the story of the life of Christ in the facades and inside of the church. This place will be in my bucket list. I hope it'll be in yours too.
Actually, since the pandemic, plans became uncertain for the end of the construction, but the Jesus Christ tower, the central and largest tower, will be finished by 2026. The only thing that still needs to be done would be the towers of the Glory Facade, that'll take less than a decade. So yeah, 2026 is good but don't expect the whole monument to be finished. If you like Sagrada Família's unique style, you should see the Sanctuary of Montferri, made by Josep Maria Jujol, one of Gaudí's closest collaborators. It looks like a tiny Sagrada Família, and it's 100% worth visiting. Take a look at it on Google
Estuve en Enero hace poco y la verdad Maravilla Universal vivo en Asia Pacifico cuando pueda volvere,Gaudi todo maravilla y hermoso.que gran Arquitecto.
Caio Williams He was a devout catholic. If you look up for his motivations and the symbolism within the building, you'll see why religion is a key element to understand this work. It's pretty interesting!
It's a shame the most of the buildings around are not artistic and pretty ugly. What a shame that trend from the 60's 70's 80's to build shity buildings that destroyed beautiful and historical cities
A cathedral church is 1000x more complicated to build + using designs from 150 years ago where architecture had a much heavier emphasis in aesthetics than functionality
Thanks much for this video. As usual, Fred and the B1M team have done a Cracker Jack* job of producing this video. I have always had an interest in architecture and some of the engineering that is needed, since I was a kid back in the 1950s. I became aware of this project way back then and have been following it casually ever since. As incredible as it may seem, I was lucky enough to have had a teacher, Miss L Elizabeth Hall, in the 3rd and 4th grades who introduced us, as wee kids, to architecture as a complete study, from the (elementary) physics to design principles. She used it as a frame-work for all the subjects that a kid learned in the 3rd grade. (In the 4th grade, it was "trees" for seed to ecology to uses--a genius of a teacher.) * does anyone out there remember "Cracker Jack" as an adjective?
Habría que despejar las 7 manzanas que la rodean para hacer una plaza como se merece ¡¡¡¡GRANDIOSA LA SAGRADA FAMILIA Y GRANDIOSO GENIO GAUDÍ!!!,, el templo más GENIAL DEL MUNDO.
Honestamente, a mi, esto ya no me parece Gaudi. Se nota que los planos originales se perdieron y los arquitectos que han seguido con el proyecto se han vuelto locos. Han perdido el sentido de la medida y la proporcionalidad. Esto se acerca mas a Disneylandia que a un edificio religioso. Y encima, de tanto exagerar, les va a quedar hasta kitsch.
El plan general sí que se ha mantenido, sobre todo lo que acabamos de ver. Son cosas concretas las que se nota que metieron mano y desentonan aunque quieren ser modernas también.

@@oolooo Unchecked capitalism is a far greater threat.
That was actually stressful to watch
Sorry
Sacrilege
Looks like Disneyland but for villains
Religion in a nutshell, mate. 😅
Yeah its devils headquarters.
Satan is man-made. I don't think God wants a place of worship, it's only for Egotistical men that call themselves priest and want power over people. I believe in Jesus but the Bible is too Edited. 14 books removed by the Vatican and Edit by King James
r/wooooooosh
xD amecins and brits in nutshell
Seeing that finished has to be on my bucket list.
Bellísima proyección!!!
El edificio en sí es un referente de la arquitectura mundial, cuando este terminado será deslumbrante ante los ojos del mundo.
Es una p... horterada.
robert111k , que mala es la envidia, ¿Verdad?
+Martín Benítez, ¿no se puede tener una opinión sobre una cuestión estética? Por cierto, horterada viene de Horta. Googlee. Igual aprende algo hoy.
robert111k estas insultando una gran construcción Española que está costando mucho por el desafío arquitectónico que conlleva hacerla y tú vas y dices que es una horterada.
Rubén Yáñez Ferrer, a las construcciones no se las insulta. Yo estoy manifestando, más o menos crudamente, una opinión estética. Cuando vi la Sagrada Familia, hace bastantes años ya, me pareció preciosa. Pero esta cosa en que la están convirtiendo, parece ser que siguiendo los planos de Gaudí, no sé si fielmente o no, me parece algo abigarrado, recargado, sin sentido... En fin: hortera.
...and for those who complain it is too much you probably lack imagination. I am also of the belief less is more but this creation is an exception. You can only really appreciate it close up and seeing the details. Much more interesting than any of these new glass super towers and the like.
Its going to be one the worlds most beatiful buildings. Only 8 years to go.....
superdresser the fuck u mean
VENIRUDH PULLA The completion is 8 years from now, can't you assume?? ...
I bet they said that 8 years ago too. And 8 years before that. And before that....
Simplemente impresionante, soy un enamorado de esta obra de arte. Una pasada.
I'm so sad that it wouldn't have the same colour due to stone aging, some part of it would be darker than the other. Hope they clean everything out in the end.
Power wash it lol
The thing is, it's not entirely because of aging that the parts look different. Several different types of sandstone from all around the world have been used (mostly because the original sandstone source has slowly run out over time). So simply cleaning it out is useless; rather, I think that there's a kind of beauty to that variety of colour, as it shows the generational and international collaboration of the project
Ty for the nice 480p video with this beautifun non agressive music !
When I was very young (50 years ago), I thought it was ugly - not realizing that it was unfinished.
Now that it is 99% finished, I think it is the most BEAUTIFUL church in the world! ✨❤✨
The Finished design looks crazy! I love it! I read that you can go to the top of the cross and have a panoramic view of Barcelona
Remarkable! If you find Antoni Gaudi's seminal, idiosyncratic and thoroughly baroque style of organic architecture too busy, then remember that he didn't design every church and certainly not every building to have been built. His efforts enrich modern architectural and art history, and must enthrall both visitors to and residents of Barcelona alike.
Oh wow! Brilliant visualisation
Glorious
To The B1M !!! Please reupload this 9 years old video in High Quality 4K or 1080p at least !
Very good projection, Gaudí is one of my favorite architects, one question, what's the name of the song used for this video?, thank you, greetings from Chile :)
I'm so excited to see this giant church finished. I want to go to Barcelona in 2026 (the time expected to be finished) just to see this giant church finished. Tbh, the architecture is absolutely creative. Gaudi makes very awesome and fascinating architecture that is literal eye candy. The architecture on the facades and inside of the church is just... amazing. It does a very great job telling the story of the life of Christ in the facades and inside of the church.
This place will be in my bucket list. I hope it'll be in yours too.
Actually, since the pandemic, plans became uncertain for the end of the construction, but the Jesus Christ tower, the central and largest tower, will be finished by 2026. The only thing that still needs to be done would be the towers of the Glory Facade, that'll take less than a decade. So yeah, 2026 is good but don't expect the whole monument to be finished.
If you like Sagrada Família's unique style, you should see the Sanctuary of Montferri, made by Josep Maria Jujol, one of Gaudí's closest collaborators. It looks like a tiny Sagrada Família, and it's 100% worth visiting. Take a look at it on Google
@@politonno2499 Noice
that's what you call holy overkill
Estuve en Enero hace poco y la verdad Maravilla Universal vivo en Asia Pacifico cuando pueda volvere,Gaudi todo maravilla y hermoso.que gran Arquitecto.
way tooooooooo many details!
Thats religion for you.
I say it looks like a nightmare from the outside and like a dream inside.
in what way exactly? Gaudi designed it, not religion.
Caio Williams He was a devout catholic. If you look up for his motivations and the symbolism within the building, you'll see why religion is a key element to understand this work. It's pretty interesting!
That's part of what makes it special.
How many steeples do you want?
Gaudí: YES!
It's a shame the most of the buildings around are not artistic and pretty ugly. What a shame that trend from the 60's 70's 80's to build shity buildings that destroyed beautiful and historical cities
Were you expecting spiky buildings around it?
@@SirKolass I mean, it's better than Le Corbusier IMO...
Wow this is simply spectacular :0
Se inacabada, a Catedral da Sagrada Família já é considerada o cartão postal de Barcelona, imagine quando a obra estiver concluída.
I love this. It is one of a kind and otherworldly.
The Dom in Cologne isnt finished yet since
1650...
It's a great tourist place I think so
Have to admit. It's not the most pretty thing I've seen.
Jesse Sertavis Ramirez I had thought the same until I saw the inside and then I was like @_@
@@augurcybernaut4785 it's beautiful inside
@Eliphas 『Over Heaven』 That's exactly what he didn't say...
It represens the absolute crazy complexity of nature. Look inside, it even more beautiful
it's beautiful now but when it's done ✅ gorgeous!!!!!!!! if i lived there i would go every day.
Sagrada Família = The Always Under Construction cathedral
Edit : Btw, the design is too much
Wow, beautiful, I hope I live to see it completed
This is scary, after all these years, it’s not even 85% complete!
That's what happen when there is a Civil War and the original maquettes and plans are destroyed
Omg 😮 going to finally finish Guadi’s final act🤗 so going to Spain when it’s finished
Beautiful Building
BOB.org lol you're on every comment.
La Sagrada familia amazing👍👍👍
One the most beautiful piece of art ever achieved by men to the Glory of God ...
Just came back from this place this morning. It is really amazing. If you can afford it, come to Barcelona and see it for yourself.
It took them 13 months to build the empire state building... 150 years to build a church
Maxwell Jacobs It took 83 years to build the National Cathedral in Washington DC.
A cathedral church is 1000x more complicated to build + using designs from 150 years ago where architecture had a much heavier emphasis in aesthetics than functionality
the empire state building was business funded building. This church works only on donations.
Wow, this comment is so ignorant
one is completely square and the other is like the most complex building in the world in shape and everything
Thanks much for this video. As usual, Fred and the B1M team have done a Cracker Jack* job of producing this video. I have always had an interest in architecture and some of the engineering that is needed, since I was a kid back in the 1950s. I became aware of this project way back then and have been following it casually ever since. As incredible as it may seem, I was lucky enough to have had a teacher, Miss L Elizabeth Hall, in the 3rd and 4th grades who introduced us, as wee kids, to architecture as a complete study, from the (elementary) physics to design principles. She used it as a frame-work for all the subjects that a kid learned in the 3rd grade. (In the 4th grade, it was "trees" for seed to ecology to uses--a genius of a teacher.) * does anyone out there remember "Cracker Jack" as an adjective?
How did the original architect planned to build it when we have computers and stuff but can't manage to finish it?
The problem here is money, not technology.
Habría que despejar las 7 manzanas que la rodean para hacer una plaza como se merece ¡¡¡¡GRANDIOSA LA SAGRADA FAMILIA Y GRANDIOSO GENIO GAUDÍ!!!,, el templo más GENIAL DEL MUNDO.
it was great midway through, but honestly the end result looks like shit
It looks a lot better up close.
BEAUTIFUL
0:40 Looked good here, Why would you destroy so much detail by building this four towers at the front?
Now it just looks like a bundle of pricks.
I cannot wait for it to be finished!
Looks like saurons place..
Espero estar vivo para cuando terminen la sagrada familia
And at the end it Wont matter because our goal is heaven.
Wow, just amazing!!!! ❤
Honestamente, a mi, esto ya no me parece Gaudi. Se nota que los planos originales se perdieron y los arquitectos que han seguido con el proyecto se han vuelto locos. Han perdido el sentido de la medida y la proporcionalidad. Esto se acerca mas a Disneylandia que a un edificio religioso. Y encima, de tanto exagerar, les va a quedar hasta kitsch.
Paisa Nin , envidia?
Martin Benitez, ja ja, no hombre.. es una opinion. Y ademas la catedral de mi ciudad es incomparablemente mas bella que esta. Y autentica.
Paisa Nin amén hermano
Están basando esto en lo que SÍ sobrevivió de los planos, maquetas y apuntes de Gaudí
El plan general sí que se ha mantenido, sobre todo lo que acabamos de ver. Son cosas concretas las que se nota que metieron mano y desentonan aunque quieren ser modernas también.
Belle construction
