The Antic Gasòmetre is a striking 45-metre-high industrial water tower built to supply the pressure needed for 19th-century gas production — one of Barcelona's most unusual surviving pieces of industrial heritage. The circular tank perched at the top gives it an unmistakable silhouette that stands out from the city's more celebrated landmarks. If you're into urban history and architecture that most people walk right past, this one's worth seeking out.
