Tips
Very impressive and worth seeing.
The climb, although rather steep, is mostly via steps and is quite strenuous.translated by

It's very interesting to climb down here and imagine how people worked here with the simplest tools in near darkness. Light came only from pinewood (similar to a burning match). However, the quarry provided material for roofing the Marienstatt Monastery.
