Cova de l'Habitació

Highlight • Historical Site

This is an archaeological site of an old snowfield used to store snow for trade. It is about seven meters in diameter and about ten deep and from here the views are very beautiful. Following a few more meters you can reach the top of the Teix peak.

Cava Gran de Agres

Highlight • Monument

"La Cava Gran de Agres" is a historic snow storage facility that once served as a refrigerator for storing snow, which was later used as ice. In winter, snow was filled into the pit and compacted to be used as blocks of ice. The upper arches supported a roof that protected the snow from the sun. In summer, the stored snow was cut into blocks and transported to the cities by pack animals.

Ice was of great importance at that time for preserving food and for medicinal purposes. The architecture of the Cava is characterized by massive stone walls and a domed roof, parts of which are now in ruins. The building is an important testament to the traditional methods of preservation and logistics in the region.
