The first water tower in La Sagrera dates from the mid-19th century and is one of neighbourhood’s outstanding symbols. It supplied water to local factories.

Cultural heritage

Hydraulic construction for distributing water with exposed brickwork and an octagonal base. The water tower seems to be crowned by a stone ring, similar to the base, and is approximately 14 metres in height. It is identified by the Petit paisatge de Barcelona plaque, which is awarded by the Institute of Urban Landscape to identify iconic sites in Barcelona that stand out for their sentimental and historical value.
