The Sagrada Família is to be inaugurated. Again. Pope Leo XIV will come to Spain to bless the highest tower of Barcelona's world-famous landmark on June 10.

The ceremony is being held exactly 100 years after the death of the legendary architect Antoni Gaudí. The question is whether Leo will give any clues as to if and when Gaudí could be made a saint.

Building work has been ongoing for over 140 years. According to the current plan, the last major construction work is expected to be completed by the mid-2030s.
