Pope Benedict XVI's visit to Barcelona

The Pope will be in Santiago de Compostela on the 6th and Barcelona on the 7th. This is Benedict XVI's second visit to Spain, after his 2006 visit to Valencia.

On Sunday the 7th of November the King and Queen will attend the ceremony presided over by Pope Benedict XVI in Barcelona, where he will consecrate the temple and altar of the Sagrada Familia. The church, designed by Antoni Gaudí, will receive the designation of basilica from Benedict XVI for its monumental and artistic characteristics. The pope will stay at the see of the archbishop, and from there will travel by pope-mobile to the church. Before entering the temple he will travel along Mallorca Street to greet and bless the people gathered in the surrounding area..
In the morning the door of Glory will be opened and the bishops who will celebrate Mass with the Pope, which will include the consecration ceremony, will enter through this door. According to Cardinal Sistach, for security reasons 7500 people will be permitted access to the interior of the church. Outside in the surrounding streets and squares chairs and giant screens will be installed so that those outside can follow the ceremony.
