    Today the stone church is one of the most important cultural monuments in Lower Saxony. It consists of an almost rectangular cave room and a large forecourt. According to archaeologists, excavation finds show that the cave was used by reindeer hunters around 10,000 years ago. Later the Teutons probably used the cave as a "place of worship".
