Casal d'Entitats Mas Guinardó

One of the oldest buildings in the city and one of the most emblematic spots in the neighbourhood of Horta-Guinardó, the Mas Guinardó Bar dominates the area from its height. This priveleged position made it useful to serve as a watchtower during the sieges on Barcelona in the 17th and 18th centuries. These days, following renovations, it's functions as a 'casal' – a type of community centre – for organisations in the neighbourhood. At the back is a terrace with a bar that affords you a fantastic view of the city that, if you're lucky, you can take in along with a bit of live music.
