Castellers de Barcelona, Human tower group in Barcelona, Spain

The Castellers de Barcelona members wear red shirts and perform traditional human tower constructions reaching heights of up to nine levels.

Founded in 1969, this group became the first castell team established outside the traditional regions, with their inaugural performance in Vendrell.

The team hosts an annual gathering of castell groups at Plaça Sant Jaume during the La Mercè festival, maintaining Catalan human tower traditions.

The group conducts regular training sessions at their center in the Clot neighborhood, operating from a municipal facility within the cases de la festa network.

The team achieved their first nine-story structure in 1998 by building a four of nine with folre, marking a significant technical advancement.
