fish

A well-known landmark sculpture in Barcelona is the creation by Frank O Gehry, The Barcelona Fish, one of the world's largest sculptures located on the waterfront and designed for the Olympics in 1992. The 45m fish sculpture acts as a signpost for the Olympic Village, formerly an abandoned industrial site which has been transformed into a striking area and a must-see in the city. Two apartment blocks were built for the athletes participating in the games, these have since been changed into an insurance company building and the 5 star Arts Hotel - commended as one of the best in Europe.
