10.06.2026The Day the Pope Blessed the Sagrada Família Tower

The papal visit to Catalonia continued to dominate editorial priorities, with León XIV's day structured around symbolic stops. In the morning, he visited Brians 1 prison, telling inmates that 'life's errors do not determine a person's identity.' He then traveled to Montserrat Abbey, where he addressed thousands, calling for an end to 'hurtful words and slander' and praising Catalonia as an example of integration. By late afternoon, the Pope processed through Barcelona to the Sagrada Família, where he presided over a solemn mass attended by the King and Prime Minister Sánchez. The day culminated with the blessing of the newly completed Tower of Jesus, framed as a call for peace. Non-papal stories—US strikes on Iran, corruption allegations against Leire Díez, and a shooting near a Barcelona police station—received only secondary coverage.
