Sagrada Família with audio guide
The Sagrada Familia is a breathtaking basilica that has been under construction since 1882 and attracts several million visitors every year. Designed by Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí, the architectural masterpiece combines elements of late Spanish Gothic, Catalan Modernism and Art Nouveau.
The church impresses with its unique shapes, colorful stained glass windows and imposing towers. Inside, visitors can expect an impressive spectacle of light created by the artistically designed windows.
Although still unfinished, the Sagrada Familia is already one of the most extraordinary buildings in the world and a must-see for every visitor to Barcelona.
With the Barcelona Essentials Pass you receive an admission ticket with a reserved time slot for the Sagrada Família. Admission also entitles you to use the official audio guide via smartphone app.
If no regular tickets are available, you can often choose between different options, e.g. guided tour or access to the towers.

Park Güell with audio guide
Park Güell, an architectural masterpiece by the famous Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí, is one of Barcelona's most visited sights. The 17-hectare park combines nature and art in a unique way.
The imaginative designs, colorful mosaics and organic shapes blend harmoniously into the hilly landscape. Highlights include the iconic dragon staircase at the entrance, the wave-shaped mosaic bench on the Plaça de la Natura with a breathtaking view over Barcelona and the Hypostyle Hall with its 86 imposing columns.
With the Barcelona Essentials Pass, you receive a ticket with a reserved time slot for Park Güell. You also receive an audio guide in several languages, which can be used via smartphone app.
If you want to visit the Sagrada Família and Park Güell on the same day, plan a few hours between the two time slots.
