Bocairente

Built in 1843, it is the oldest in the Valencian Community. It is a unique and singular piece due to its originality, since it is excavated for the most part in living rock. The mountainous configuration of the land gives the square a peculiar distribution that allows access to both the trawl door and the presidential box, at the top, on a flat floor. We will be able to understand more of how it was made, while we explore its corners and details.

Cava de Sant Blai

The Bocairent snowfields or cellars were used to collect snow and use it later. Despite the fact that this activity was important during the Kingdom of Valencia and in later times, it is worth mentioning that its origin dates back to the East, in the Old Kingdom of Egypt, as well as in Mesopotamia, in addition to collecting written records of a "cold house". in Ur (2000 BC), among other places in the world.
