The Temple de Sagrada Famila is a masterpiece of Modern Architecture. It is truly impressive in vision and scope and is always one of my stops when I visit.

St Denis was martyred in the 3rd century, by beheading, on the hill that is now Montmartre, in Paris. Afterward, it is written, he picked up his head and walked two miles, preaching a sermon, until he reached the site where now stands the Basilica St-Denis.
