Waterfall encased in rough rock and an old flour mill documented since the 18th century, taking advantage of the constant force of the Llobeta stream. In addition to what everyone says, there is a little-mentioned detail here: the mill had a small auxiliary lock up the road that allowed the flow to be regulated so that the mill would not stop in dry summers.
