Description
Morphology
Small shelter about 6 m wide and about 4 m high. The deepest part at the rock barely reaches 3 m.
History
Following their survey work in the Serra de Godall, in April 1983 members of the Grup d'Espeleologia d'Ulldecona visited the cavity, discovering an important group of rock paintings (five goats) of Levantine art.
The group of shelters (Masets and Llibreres) have been declared a world heritage site by UNESCO.
