Have you visited the Gaudi buildings in Barcelona?

A few of them. Here's a few of my photos from inside La Sagrada Familia

@ElwoodBlues Apparently the modern glass is magnificent
@SW-User Yes it is! LSF is unusual in that it's oriented diagonally instead of having the altar at the eastern end. So morning sun shines thru the green & blue windows on the right (as you face the altar), and afternoon sun is on the left red & orange windows. Our tickets admitted us on a beautiful sunny morning.

All the glass is abstract, too, though the names of hundreds of saints are included. My son saw the photos and wondered if LSF is non-denominational because it doesn't contain most of the standard story-telling iconography - though of course there's a large crucifix with a corpus above the altar.
