  • Also known as house of the enchanted moresque, it is a natural cave in the limestone and unique in this region, since the limestone has been moved here due to tectonic movements occurred in the Paleozoic (Silurian).

     

    It has vestiges of human occupation that go back to the end of the Neolithic period and the beginning of the Iron Age and the Chalcolithic period. Nearby there are some lime ovens. The cave is classified as IIP - Property of Public Interest.
