This church has been being built for over 100 years, and counting. This token depicts one of the most famous buildings in all of Barcelona, the Sagrada Família church. It was built by none other than Anthoni Gaudi. It should be completed by 2026, 100 year anniversary of the death of the architect who first designed it. There are tall towers, and large inside caverns with columns. This is the most impressive church I have even been in. One of the great man made modern wonders of the world for sure.
