    The Oswald Cave is a karst cave on the Hollow Mountain, about 800 meters east of Muggendorf, a district of the Upper Franconian market town Wiesenttal in the district of Forchheim in Bavaria.

    Hiking

    Definitely worth seeing through cave with partly only 1.5m high. You should definitely have a flashlight with you to safely find the 15m long passage through the Oswaldhöle. An exciting "G`schicht" not only for children.
