Pope Leo is set to inaugurate the tallest tower of Barcelona’s Sagrada Familia church as part of the site’s 100th anniversary celebrations. Multiple Australian outlets report that the Pope will preside over the ceremony marking the next milestone in the long-running completion of Antoni Gaudí’s basilica. The inauguration focuses specifically on the highest tower, which represents a significant step in the ongoing work to finish the iconic structure. While the sources agree on the core details—Pope Leo’s participation, the 100-year timeframe, the location in Barcelona, and the planned opening of the tallest tower—no additional specifics are provided in the excerpts about dates, the schedule of other anniversary events, or broader construction progress. The reports present the inauguration as a major ceremonial moment in the church’s centenary observances, highlighting both the international attention the anniversary draws and the symbolic importance of the tower’s completion within the broader project to complete Sagrada Familia.
