Höllensteinlucke – the breather for altitude heroes 😅 Are you on your way to the Höllensteinhaus, panting like a broken vacuum cleaner and wondering if you're lost? Don't worry – you've arrived at the Höllensteinlucke! 🎉 This legendary "lucke" isn't a magical portal, but simply a small cut in the terrain – but for tired hiking legs, it feels like a gift from the Vienna Woods. 🌲✨ Here you can take a short breather, question your existence, and mentally prepare for the final climb. Because from here on, things get tough again – but hey, you're not here for fun. Or are you? 😄

This underground chapel is very impressive and highly recommended.

The Grotto of the Virgin Mary is located in a forest clearing below ground level, the entrance is fenced off or secured with a small concrete wall, the interior of the grotto is largely natural. At the entrance there is a small table and a place to sit, a small bell can be rung using a cord. On the right side of the grotto there is a painted statue of the Virgin Mary based on the model of Gothic Madonnas, above the entrance protected by a wooden gable roof, a carved, unpainted figure of the Virgin Mary in the style of the protective cloak Madonnas. Various pictures have been placed inside the grotto.

The Matterhörndl is a small but impressive rock in the Vienna Woods that is perfect for a short rest. It is a little hidden away from the main path and easy to miss, but it is worth the visit. With a small opening through and the opportunity to climb around a bit, it is a mystical place for photographers, children and nature lovers. I visited this mountain as part of my Dwarf Mountain Tours series. My goal is to climb every mountain in the Vienna Woods.

The history of the chapel is not entirely clear: its architecture can be dated to the early 13th century. At this time, the last duke of the House of Babenberg, Frederick the Quarrelsome (1230–1246), was Lord of Vienna. The hypothesis was put forward that the Duke, who would have liked to see Vienna as a bishopric, had a crypt built for Saint Koloman, the then patron saint of the desired diocese.

The Seegrotte Hinterbrühl is a former gypsum mine near Vienna that has become a show mine and a popular attraction. The Seegrotte has an eventful history, ranging from mining to the Second World War to a film set. The main attraction is the largest underground lake in Europe, where you can take a romantic boat trip. The sea grotto is open all year round and is a unique experience whatever the weather.

Interesting old church that was discovered during the construction of the subway.

The underground Gothic Virgil Chapel from 1220 is located below the Stephansdom underground station. The chapel (admission 5 euros) is accessible from the underground station Stephansdom. It is best to take the Kärntner Str. entrance. The chapel was discovered in 1972 when the underground station was being built.
