Top 16 Caves バイアースブロンでの

The Edelfrauengrab waterfalls are located near Ottenhöfen in the Black Forest, within the Gottschläg-Karlsruher Grat nature reserve. The water plunges over several rocky steps with a total drop of approximately 45 meters. A hiking trail of about 4 km leads directly through the waterfalls, ascending approximately 180 meters in altitude. The name originates from a legend surrounding the so-called Edelfrauengrab – a cave carved out by the force of the water, which can still be visited today. Between 1857 and 1862, the waterfalls were made accessible to visitors through the construction of walkways, bridges, and paths. Written evidence dates back to 1856. This development is likely connected to a visit by Grand Duke Frederick I of Baden, who was impressed by the wild and romantic landscape and supported its accessibility.

The Untere Sophia mine is one of the few in the Forbach Valley whose entrance is not filled in today. Cobalt was mined there – a unique occurrence in the Northern Black Forest. The mine was first mentioned in 1593; it was probably in operation until 1757, after which it was closed and filled in. The entrance to the mine was only rediscovered around 1995. Guided tours are available upon request. https://www.nationalparkregion-schwarzwald.de/poi/baiersbronn-friedrichstal-grube-sophia

The "Untere Sophia" mine is one of the oldest mines in the area. It is already marked on a map by Georg Gadner from 1593. At that time, however, the tunnel was still called "St. Johannis am Friesenberg."

Beautifully laid out and well-kept. There are even candles. A place of peace.

Here you can see something beautiful, very worth seeing

Lourdes grottoes can be found all over Europe. This one in Oberachern was inaugurated in 1996 after the Mary and Bernadette figures were in a lime tree near the Antonius Chapel for a long time and at some point fell into a Sleeping Beauty sleep there. The Lourdes Grottoes refer to the appearance of the Mother of God to St. Bernadette, which is said to have first taken place in 1858 in a grotto at Massabielle near Lourdes in southern France. Hardly any other place is more associated with miracles and healing than Massabielle.
