Pou des Rafals

Pou des Rafals. Another well lost

Pou des Rafals is a well loaded with tradition

Located between the towns of Sant Agustí and Sant Antoni, we find Pou De rafals, an old water well. Access is easy, but we have to know their exact situation to not get lost. Taking the road that passes through both villages, closer to Sant Agustí, we find a pink sign with the indication of the well. Although the signal seems to indicate that we follow a detour, the well is to the left, next to the road. A few hundred meters, next to the vineyard, we find a new sign, and the Pou Des rafals.

Place of Passage. Place of Reunion

This type of wells is usually located near old cattle roads. One of its main characteristics is found in the troughs located next to the well, very practical to calm the thirst of horses and beasts of load. The size of Pou Des rafals Watering trough does not seem to be very useful for cattle transfer. The well has a wood protection, although it is quite worn by time. Although It seems to remain functional, not having the typical lattice protection for this type of wells, we found no rope or bucket attached to the stroller. This Is one of the elements that attract attention. Always Built in wood to avoid corrosion, its marks denote the passage of time. As usual, the tradition of the Well festival is still preserved on Sunday after August 28th.
