Torre Agbar

Avda. Diagonal 211
Plaça de les Glóries Catalanes
Barcelona


Torre Agbar is an unusual modern skyscraper, the office building which nowadays is a head office of the Aguas de Barcelona Group. With its 144,4 metres of height and total 38 floors (includes 4 floors underground) it is the third tallest building in Barcelona.

The Agbar Tower was projected by French architect Jean Nouvel. His inspiration, especially for unique shape of this construction, was the near Montserrat mountain and the nature. Its design is a combination of different architectural styles. The facade is made of glass. But undoubtedly the greatest feature of this building is its nocturnal illumination.
