Touching the sky with the hand presents us a fun and rigorous explanation of the keys to understand and enjoy these ephemeral and fantastic constructions which, besides being an expression of the Catalan cultural identity, are also a metaphor and reality of brotherly work and of the sense of continuity within the community.
Castells (castles) are human towers built in Catalonia where men, women and children alike participate. These towers may reach a height of up to ten storeys and, since 2010, are Intangible Cultural Heritage by UNESCO.Castells
