Descrizione

Morfologia

The entrance, 13 metres wide by 3 metres high, is entirely built with dry stone; through a built portal it leads into a flat and very dusty chamber, from which various corridors emerge, generally oriented N and NE, with some interconnections between them.

Storia

A cavity known in the area since time immemorial; it was given its name because of the custom of one of the rectors of Pradell of regularly walking to the cave.

At present, nocturnal shows are usually held in the cave chamber in summer, during the EVA Festival of storytelling out loud.
