The Sagrada Familia is not only a marvel of architecture but also a monument rich in Christian symbolism. Among its many iconic features, the four towers dedicated to the Evangelists—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—stand proudly as spiritual beacons. These towers rise in harmony around the central Jesus Christ tower, each topped with a statue representing their associated symbols: an angel, a lion, an ox, and an eagle.
Designed by Antoni Gaudí to express divine storytelling through architecture, these towers represent the voices that shared the life and teachings of Christ with the world. Their placement and intricate detailing reflect Gaudí’s deep commitment to both the Catholic faith and natural harmony. As the construction progresses, the Evangelists’ towers become ever more striking, contributing to the basilica’s dreamlike silhouette.
Visitors can admire these magnificent towers from multiple vantage points within the basilica or even ascend nearby towers for a closer look at the architectural and symbolic mastery.
