Located in Plaça de Sant Miquel behind Barcelona’s City Hall, this unusual 26.5m high stainless steel tower by Antoni Llena i Font was unveiled in 2012. The statue, titled 'Homenatge als Castellers,' pays homage to the emblematic human towers that are a traditional feature of public events in Catalonia. Each X-shaped section of chicken wire represents a person. In the real human towers, the lower layers are formed by men, the middle layers by women and teenagers, and the upper layers by children.
