Rooftopper Vitaliy Raskalov of On The Roofs recently shared a series of photos from Barcelona’s famous Sagrada Familia, offering views many have never seen.

Still under construction, Raskalov scaled to the top of one of the cranes on the church’s roof, showing the surrounding neighbourhood as well as dizzying views of the church below.

Designed by beloved Catalan architect Antoni Gaudi, construction on the Roman Catholic church began in 1882. Despite still being under construction, Sagrada Familia was designated a World Heritage Site in 1984
