DESCRIPTION                                                                                English   Español   Français   Deutsch   Dutch
Los Pozos de la nieve, a building which age is lost in time, considering its physical aspect we could suspect a religious origin, but from its recent history which is documented we could identify it as an industrial building and storage place of ice to supply the town of Seville, to which it belongs already ever since the XVII th century, proof of this is the spectacular shield we admire on the façade.
The above mentioned construction, which has been awarded with a price and a special mention by the local Authorities and the Europa Nostra Awards 2006 in recognition of a valuable contribution to the conservation and enhancement of cultural heritage, is stationed in a property of seventy thousands square meters, magnificent indigenous forests of elms, chestnuts, oaks, olive-trees etc.. well conserved, inside the natural park of Sierra Morena.
** EQUIPMENT
This singular construction is dotted with:
1 - Two apartments fully furnished and equipped (> 100 m2) for 2 to 6 persons. Bathroom, sitting and dining room, different bedrooms, kitchen, etc... Unique spaces with an atmosphere of absolute silence and relax.
2- On the first floor the building with a basilica character breathes an atmosphere of a Moorish temple. A sensation which persists due to the great amount of divisions and the forest of pillars that maintain two rows of semicircular arches. Nevertheless this exceptional construction was mainly focused on industrial activities.
The chapel authorized by Pope Inocencio XII in 1697 and dedicated to The Virgin of the Ice, was in use till the end of last century.Los Pozos de la Nieve, a building with an extraordinary character, is at your service for all kinds of cultural activities (expositions, concerts, etc.) and social events, celebrations.
3- Due to its orientation north, two big pits The ice pits of Constantina were constructed to maintain ice produced in small pools outside, during wintertime, providing ice to the Seville City. Striking is that these pits are incorporated in the building, to form one constructional, harmonious site.
On the façade one can still find the escudo of Seville dated from 1696 and referring to the time when the building was property of the city. Below the escudo is a marble plate with inscription that the Ilustrisimo Cabildo y Regimiento of Seville bought the building, with its wells and water, in 1684, the period when Carlos II was the King of Spain. Got the privilege in 1694 of his M.R. to produce ice, a purpose for which the building was particularly suited.
