One of the most unusual buildings I've seen in my visits to any old city anywhere. It is a building originally built in the 1600s, called a glacier (not it isn't a "glacier" in English, but an icehouse). It goes very deep into the ground, and used to hold 40 tons of ice. I was surprised to find out they had the ice and used it for cooling and also to make sorbets!
