Barcelona was once home to prominent 20th century artists like Pablo Picasso and Joan Miro. The experimental works of the Art Nouveau architect Antoni Gaudi are one of the city's unique attractions. His Templo de la Sagrada Familia, still unfinished but strikingly original, is a landmark symbol of the city of Barcelona.
