    Located below the Monturque municipal cemetery and discovered in 1885 during the expansion works. They are the largest Roman cisterns in Spain and the fourth in the world. Declared an Asset of Cultural Interest in 1996. It is a hydraulic construction from Roman times that was used to store rainwater, made up of twelve chambers covered with a half-barrel vault. The Great Cistern is a work of great monumentality and significance.
