        The Feldhofhöhle, above the Hönne, served as an ammunition store during World War II. The temperature in the cave is constantly between eight to ten degrees Celsius. Overall, only a few traces of the Neanderthals were found because the phosphate-containing content was used as fertilizer in the 19th century. Nevertheless, bones of woolly rhinos, horses, reindeer, hyenas and wolves have been found. Pottery from the older Ice Age has also been found.
