With an irregular entrance leading to a small room and then to a main chamber, the cave has a 10 meter elevation change and a total length of 50 meters. It was discovered in 1969 by Manuel Gimenez Gomez, who was informed of its existence by a local resident. The initial study of the cave paintings was conducted by specialist Javier Fortea in 1971, revealing a prominent representation of a red bull accompanied by black dots, possibly associated with a female figure.
The chronological analysis of the paintings dates their origin to the Lower Solutrean or Evolved period, although their interpretation remains a subject of debate. It is suggested that they could have meanings related to propitiatory magic, reproduction, or even art for arts sake. Over the years, the cave has undergone superficial alterations due to climatic factors and natural phenomena, as well as human interventions such as graffiti and wax deposits.
The discovery of the Cueva del Toro has enriched our understanding of rock art in the region and offers a unique window into the prehistoric history of the area. Its ongoing conservation and study are essential for better understanding the past and preserving this important cultural heritage.
