Mills in Alto Aragón - aceitero

Calasanz

Calasanz is situated in the Ribagorza region at the southern slopes of the Sierra de Carrodilla. It's easily reached from Barbastro or Monzón via Fonz and Azanuy. Nice village for a short walk in plain olive country. Good views of the surroundings from the church.

Almost nothing of the former oil mill is preserved: a couple of stones to crush the olives and some storage capacity. That's all. One of the containers is lined with nice tiles (5, 6).
