Barcelona has several sports facilities inherited from the 1992 Olympic Games, including Montjuïc Olympic Stadium and the municipal swimming pool in the same district, which offers sweeping views of the city from its elevated location. The Olympic and Sports Museum showcases this period with collections of medals, torches, and vintage equipment. The Horta Velodrome, built in 1984, features a 250-meter track and still hosts cycling competitions. Beyond this Olympic legacy, the city hosts active sports venues like the Municipal Sailing Center in Barceloneta, which offers classes and equipment rentals, and the Club Natació Atlètic-Barceloneta, with its Olympic-sized pool and water polo team that has competed in the top division since 1992. The Real Club de Polo de Barcelona, founded in 1897, maintains polo fields, tennis courts, and hockey facilities certified internationally. Football enthusiasts can visit the RCD Espanyol stadium, the city's other professional club.
