La Nevera
An old 18th-century snow house, dug out to store snow collected in winter and keep it until summer. It preserves the access tunnel and formed part of an enclosure closed by a wall with a single door. It is one of the most unusual testimonies to the use of cold in the Safor.
La Nevera is an 18th-century structure designed to store the snow collected during winter and keep it until summer. It preserves the access tunnel, which allows entry into the cavity where the ice was kept. It formed part of an enclosure closed by a wall with a single door, so the deposit remained protected and controlled. The site is one of the most unusual testimonies to the use of cold in the Safor. The deposit remains a singular piece within the heritage of the municipality and of its rural landscape.
