Ctra. Fontanar. 23485, Pozo Alcón How to get

It is an aqueduct dating from the early twentieth century, following the Roman construction typology, built in stone and mortar.

Information

We arrive at the aqueduct through the service road that connects Pozo Alcón with Cuevas del Campo, once we have passed the Aqueducts of Guerra and Caramaco we can see its elongated silhouette in the distance. Its state of conservation is quite good.

It is made up of 78 semi-circular arches on one floor, made of masonry built with local stone -turronera- and mortar. It is about 400 m. long and its arches are higher than those of the nearby aqueducts of Guerra and Caramaco. Several of its arches have a height supplement to correct the irregularities of the terrain.
