The façades of the Sagrada Familia are far more than architectural marvels—they are vivid expressions of sacred symbolism. Each side of the basilica reveals a powerful chapter in the story of Christ, masterfully brought to life in stone. Gaudí’s intention was not just to impress the eye, but to uplift the spirit and educate visitors through art and symbolism.

The Nativity Façade, with its joyful detail, celebrates the birth of Jesus. Filled with nature-inspired carvings, animals, and figures from scripture, it radiates life and divine celebration. In contrast, the stark and angular Passion Façade evokes the suffering and crucifixion of Christ—boldly sculpted by Josep Subirachs to stir deep emotional response. Meanwhile, the still-under-construction Glory Façade aims to represent Christ’s resurrection and ascension to Heaven, promising the completion of a story that spans all of Christianity.

Every curve, figure, and line in these façades carries meaning. Whether you’re a lover of architecture, art, or theology, exploring these symbolic narratives offers a spiritual and intellectual journey.
