Barcelona Local

In Poble-Sec, you’ll find three 72-feet tall red brick chimneys that were once part of the La Canadenca power station. The towers were built between 1896 and 1912 and operated until 1989, when they became listed as one of the city’s historical landmarks. Today, you can see cool street art, skateboarders doing tricks, and sculptures in the surrounding gardens. It’s free to visit and is accessible by public transportation.
