    Canyamars Ice Well is a monument in the municipality of Dosrius (Maresme) included in the Inventory of Catalan Architectural Heritage.

    Popular construction from the 17th-18th centuries consisting of a circular stone and brick well (5 m in diameter X 7 m high, approx.). Part of this well is underground (between two and three meters) and the other protrudes approx. 4 m, up to a vaulted ceiling (also made of stone and brick). The exterior walls are reinforced with buttresses and there are three openings (windows or doors) of barrel vault.

      To the south are two brick vaults, which are supposed to have been the bridges that supported the ramp that connected the well with a pond located higher up. From this pond, when the water froze, pieces of ice were sent to the well. Layers of ice and straw were made inside it in order to preserve it until the summer, the time of year when it was marketed. Dosrius City Council bought the Ice Well in 2007 from its previous private owners. The construction was half-buried, but during the conditioning works, the surrounding land was removed and the northern part has been completely exposed.
