Home›Palaces and Aristocratic Residences›Building Type›PalaceBrowse ByPalaceBuilding type sorts buildings by the specific kind of structure each one is, such as a church, a tower or a house. The Sagrada Familia is described by Wikipedia as "a Catholic church in the Eixample district of Barcelona," a precise type distinct from a palace or a museum.
