582 Fuente de la Virgen
Fresnedo 30T 0453635 4801971 Altitude 113m
Updated 7th May 2007
A small cave were the water is retained behind an artificial wall and emerges
from water-filled rifts on the right, possibly sumped. A legend says that
the Virgen appeared in the resurgence, after which the villagers tried to
build a church there. But each night angels mysteriously moved the building
materials further up the hill, to where the church now stands.
There are 2 small, diggable tubes above the resurgence (not located).
