AustriaThe article discusses the hidden mathematical proportions in Antoni Gaudí's Sagrada Família in Barcelona. It highlights how numbers and their ratios have played a central role in religious architecture since ancient times, with examples such as the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul. The Sagrada Família continues this tradition by incorporating mathematical principles into its design. Mathematician Claudi Alsina i Català discovered that the basilica's dimensions are based on a unit length of 7.5 meters and divisions of 12, which help explain many aspects of the building's structure. This reflects both aesthetic and symbolic considerations in Gaudí's work.
