The Olympic Stadium of Montjuic and the Olympic Ring
The Olympic Ring is the part of the mountain straight from the Olympic Stadium of Montjuic Lluis Companys and the walls of the cemetery. The Olympic Ring was built for the Barcelona Olympic Games in 1992. The Palau Sant Jordi is the jewel of this Olympic Ring but the National Institute of Physical Education of Catalonia (INEFC) was also built for the Olympic Games. You can also find a park and a commemorative work of the Olympics, by Santiago Calatrava.
