Set Details and Features

Part of the Architecture series, the set uses pale beige tones to faithfully replicate authentic Spanish stone. The model can be split into separate sections, allowing a close-up view of the basilica’s interior design. Construction of the Barcelona cathedral has been ongoing for over 140 years, and this new set captures the evolution of this iconic landmark.

“The new set reflects the development story of Barcelona’s most famous monument, with building steps mirroring the actual construction sequence of the basilica.”

Additionally, the set fully recreates Gaudí’s building logic. Its foundation includes:

• erecting a massive base, apse, and crypt;
• assembling the Nativity and Passion facades;
• integrating six iconic central towers;
• completing the composition with the eastern sacristy and the Glory facade.

“Our goal was to honor Gaudí’s vision with the utmost respect, capturing the basilica’s construction rhythm, its extraordinary complexity, and scale.” – Rok Žgalin Kobe, company representative.

Pre-orders for this unique set are already open on the Lego website, highlighting its popularity and anticipated interest among building enthusiasts. For Ukrainian buyers, the price is approximately 39,000–40,000 UAH. The Sagrada Família set is sure to be not only a great addition to collections but also a meaningful piece for anyone who appreciates architectural masterpieces.

The release of Lego’s Sagrada Família set underscores the growing interest in architectural models among fans, while also paying tribute to Antoni Gaudí’s work. Since the cathedral’s construction has spanned over 140 years, this set allows enthusiasts to not only recreate the landmark but also immerse themselves in its creation story. It may also inspire further exploration of Gaudí’s contributions to global architecture.
