National Art Museum of Catalonia is housed in the Palau Nacional (Catalan for ‘National Palace’) which was built as the main building for the 1929 Barcelona International Exhibition.
Gaudis unfinished church, La Sagrada Familia, in Barcelona Spain. Lizard, frog, dragon and other similar sculptures on the facades symbolically represent evil forces that are unable to enter the basilica and are running away from the heavenly towers. These sculptures also have a functional purpose of expelling rainwater from the roof away from the structure. Construction of La Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, Spain, started in 1882 and is not expected to be completed until 2026. Antoni Gaudi took over as chief architect the year after construction started and dedicated the next 43 years of his life to the project. Gaudi died in 1926 and is buried in the crypt of the unfinished basilica.
Antoni Gaudi included lizards and snakes as gargoyls. These details weere intended to expel evil spirits and also functioned as waterspouts to drain rainwater away from the walls of the building.
