Descrizione
Morfologia
The small entrance gives way to a gallery of medium dimensions that is in reality a succession of small chambers. In the last stretch we find an upper level which is reached by two different points and where the point of maximum height difference of the cavity is reached (elevation + 10).
Progressione
The path leading to the cave, in its last stretch, has a rope handrail and after about 250 metres one reaches the entrance, protected by a metal grille structure and closed with a padlock. As indicated, interested parties may ask for the key at the Town Hall.
Storia
The first news we have of the cavity dates back to the year 1934, when it was visited by Salvador Vilaseca, who carried out the first archaeological excavation of the cavity. Recently other actions have been carried out in this regard, resulting in it being an outstanding funerary cave of the Neolithic and for this reason it has been closed, although the cavity was already quite damaged by the multiple visits over the years.
