Chamberí · Madrid

Sala Canal de Isabel II

MuseumLocals' pick

Madrid's first elevated water tank (1907-1911), a domed brick and iron tower by the engineer Diego Martín Montalvo, turned into a photography gallery in 1986. Its round exhibition floors host PHotoEspaña shows; the building alone is worth the detour.
