    Rock paintings, sparkling crystals and glowing stones - in Germany's northernmost stalactite cave, the mystical atmosphere can be felt as soon as you enter the tunnel: past detailed reproductions of the earliest rock paintings you go to the "Fairytale Forest", the most beautiful part of the cave. You will also learn how the earth came to be, why the Ice Age existed, where the seas once were and why the dinosaurs disappeared. The highlight is the 3D slide show with images from the neighboring, strictly protected Riesenberg cave. And if you like, you can then enjoy regional products in the café & beer garden in the “Huthaus” at the Schillat Cave.

    The cave can only be visited as part of a guided tour.

    Opening hours: Open on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Additionally open in the high season (Easter to October) on Wednesdays from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m.

    Entrance fees: Adults pay 8 euros and children 4 euros.

    You can find more information at schillathoehle.de.
