Top 10 Caves ヤーンスドルフ/エルツゲベイでの

カースベルクのヴォールト通路は、地下の空洞構造物です。この構造物は非鉱業的性格のもので、当時ワイン、ビール、その他の食品の保管に使用されていました。ヴォールトは1531年に初めて文書で言及されました。ケムニッツにとって、地下の世界は巨大な「冷蔵庫」に相当しました。 7年後、鉱物学者のゲオルギウス・アグリコラがこの採掘場を発見しました。彼はビールの貯蔵庫で様々な岩石サンプルを採取し、調査を行いました。18世紀に王立ザクセン州政府による新しい醸造・酒場条例により、貯蔵ビールの醸造は中止されました。カースベルクの貯蔵庫は次第に荒廃しました。19世紀に通路は再発見され、再びワインとビールが保管されました。 https://www.chemnitz-online.de/gewoelbegaenge-im-kassberg.html

a very nice corner

It is simply a natural cave and not an entrance

In the Middle Ages, people searched for ore here, but apparently nothing was found. The name of the hill, Totenstein (Dead Stone), probably comes from the dead rock. Today, the protected and rare luminous moss grows in the tunnels.

The Karl May Cave, also known as the Little Iron Cave, is located in the Waldenburg Upper Forest near Hohenstein-Ernstthal. Originally a mine tunnel dating back to 1620, it was later used as a shelter. In 1869, Karl May hid here when he was wanted for theft. Five years later, he mentioned the cave in his story "The Rose of Ernstthal." It was officially named after him in 1933. During the GDR era, it was closed to the public. Today, however, it can be easily visited again and serves as a reminder of the famous author.

great corner, always worth a trip

You never stop learning! It took me years to discover this little highlight. Hidden behind the restaurants for the average weekend walker, you can actually find this pretty rock formation. 🪨💚

The money cellar, which is connected to an old legend....money does not make you happy after all 🤷
