The world of bricks is once again turning its attention to iconic architecture, and this time it does so with a rumour that’s generating serious buzz. According to various reports, LEGO could be preparing one of the most ambitious sets in its history: a large-scale recreation of the Sagrada Familia. While nothing has been officially confirmed, the figures circulating are striking enough to capture the attention of both design enthusiasts and collectors alike.
The information, coming from well-known sources within the community, points to a model made up of 12,060 pieces. If confirmed, this would make it the largest set ever produced by the brand, surpassing even the LEGO Art World Map. Released as part of the LEGO Art line, that set stands out for its 11,695 pieces and its mosaic-like approach, allowing users to create a customisable world map with different colour configurations to highlight meaningful locations.
Beyond its size, the context also plays a key role. The rumoured release would align with the centenary of Gaudí’s death, a pivotal figure in Catalan modernism. The move would make sense not only on a symbolic level, but also as part of the continued expansion of the Architecture line, which keeps pushing towards increasingly ambitious interpretations of global landmarks.
For now, everything remains speculative. There are no confirmed details regarding the design, final scale or price, but anticipation is already building. If it does materialise, it won’t just be another collector’s set, but a piece that brings together history and design in a particularly compelling way.
The Sagrada Familia reaches its final height after 144 years of construction.
