This spring house was initially built in 1937, to serve the communities of Tareja and Almargens. By then, people would come to this spot and donkeys and pitchers to collect the precious water. Later, the water from the spring was used to irrigate the surrounding fields. Nowadays isn't of much use but the City renovated the spot and once again is looking good.
