Holy Well or Sacred Spring in Balearic Isles (Ibiza).
Beside the roadside is this ancient well, the trough is believed to be a Roman sarcophagus and was found in Cas Serres de baix, and later moved here but I am not sure when. Pagesa or dances occur every August 5. Water is winched to the surface in the square well chamber.
