| METRO BILBAO |
 |
 The Metro Bilbao was officially opened in 1995 and was designed by Sir Norman Foster (Manchester, 1935), one of the most innovative and important architects of our times. His individual style has given the city one of the most recognisable architectonic landmarks: the ‘fosteritos’, which are the entrances to the various stations and are always made of glass and steel. Likewise, the inside of the metro was designed to ensure the stations were as close as possible to the surface, offering open spaces with great visibility provided by natural light.
In 1998, the Metro Bilbao received the Brunel Railway Architecture Award.
