The LEGO parts you need to build a mini 21065 Sagrada Família

Would you like to build a mini version of 21065 Sagrada Família? Then here is a list of all the pieces you need to build the model!

Few vessels make an entrance quite like the Executor. In Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back Darth Vader’s flagship casts a shadow over the enormous Imperial Star Destroyers, demonstrating how the Dark Lord likes to intimidate his enemies and his underlings.

The LEGO Group’s 21065 Sagrada Família takes that complexity seriously. With an astonishing 12,060 pieces, it is the largest LEGO set ever released by piece count. The set recreates the basilica’s intricate exterior and even its colourful stained glass effects. It is a remarkable achievement, but also a rather substantial commitment of money, space, time and bricks. That makes it a great set for a much more manageable miniature interpretation.

Reducing such an intricate building to a handful of elements presents a challenge. The towers in particular are covered in texture and smooth cylinders would have lost much of the character that makes the actual structure so distinctive.

The instructions for this model are in Blocks Issue 146.

Blocks, the monthly LEGO magazine, provides exclusive instructions for models you won’t find anywhere else. You can follow the instructions closely and build the exact model shown, or take them as inspiration to build something similar but unique. Either way, these builds are a great way to learn techniques and upgrade your LEGO building skills.
