Schillergrotte

The Schiller Grotto is a horseshoe-shaped end of a canyon covered with beech and fir trees. The grotto was named after a son of the poet Friedrich von Schiller, who was director of the forestry office Lorch from 1811 to 1850.

Lorch has a "Schiller Grotto" which is hidden in the forest north of Bruck.
It is not a grotto, but the rocky upper part of a ravine overgrown with beech and fir forest. A beautiful symmetrical, mostly water-free grotto with about 25 m long rocky wings forms its mountain-side, horseshoe-shaped end. In the lowest part of the cave there is clayey rock. Presumably there, after heavy rainfall, water drains and clears the cavity further. Immediately next to it is an obviously completely new approach to the formation of a grotto by escaping water in rainy weather.

Since it is nice and cool in the summer
