Numerous skeletal remains prove that during the last ice age (before 120000 - 10000 years) the cave of St. Nicholas was visited by the cave bear as a hibernator for millennia.

A simple wooden sign shows the way to the cave. You almost walk past it. The location but also the cave itself is highly recommended
