    The fawn chamber is formed by 15-25 cm thick, polygonal basalt fringes. Very impressive ! In the middle of the forest, a hiking trail leads there - very stony, MTB recommended ;-).

      Sometimes difficult to reach because the paths are very uncluttered.

        Say:
        It is said of the Kitzkammer that a tall white woman with a mighty bunch of keys would occasionally appear to the wanderer there, walk silently next to the wanderer and then disappear into the Kitzkammer. She wanted to give a golden key to a shepherd boy from Hausen, but he got scared and ran home. With the key he could have unlocked their subterranean realm.
