Descrizione

Morfologia

It is a large rock shelter excavated in Pinyolenc conglomerates; it has maximum dimensions of 35 m in length by 14 m in depth and a height of 5 m.

Altri dettagli

Middle Bronze Age archaeological site. The archaeological remains that come from this site were located when, in 1978, work was carried out to lower the ground both at the entrance of the cave and in its interior. The rock shelter, at the entrance, has an image of the virgin carved in stone. On the first Sunday of September, mass and popular events are held there. In addition to remains of small dry-stone walls, a carved stone piece resembling a millstone is visible, but it could be any other tool that we are unable to determine.
