Descrizione
Morfologia
The mouth, divided by the ceiling, gives access by means of a step of just over one metre to a fairly high gallery that descends in a ramp. Halfway along the route there are some blocks that form a step of just over one metre of drop. The gallery continues descending until it becomes impenetrable at -16.5 metres of drop. The average width of the gallery is 0.9 metres.
Storia
The cave takes its name from the old castle and the church of Sant Miquel de Montaspre, which lies just above the cave.
The first reference to the place called Asper Mons is found in the year 1048, in the will granted by Arnau Mir de Tost and his wife Arsenda.
In the year 1057, in a document of an exchange, it is cited as Asperum Montis; and in the year 1066, in a document of distribution of goods of the abbey of Àger, it is cited as Aspremont.
It is in the year 1112, in a will of Guillem Gilabert, where it is already cited as Montaspre.
The cave, despite being known by local people, some hikers from Lleida and being signposted on the signs of the itinerary to the castle, has remained unpublished in the speleological bibliography.
