Top 20 Caves 베르가우 주변

The path winds through a beautiful beech forest up to the Buchberg (591 meters). Keep your eyes open for the rock towers of the Teufelskeller, which are hidden in the forest just before the summit.

The beginnings of the pilgrimage to the Mariahilfberg date back to the late 17th century. At that time there was a small burial chapel modeled on the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem and a Way of the Cross. A wooden Lady Chapel was built in 1687 very close to the Calvary. Her most valuable jewelry was a copy of a famous painting of the Virgin Mary by Lucas Cranach the Elder. Today's pilgrimage church was built between 1718 and 1727 as one of five baroque Marian shrines in western Upper Palatinate. The richly decorated baroque high altar by Johann Ulrich Wiest contains the famous miraculous image of the Virgin and Child, which is deeply revered to this day.

Visiting the large rock cellar is really fun. Already at the entrance you feel a coolness. A flashlight is a must, just to get around the wet, greasy spots on the floor.

The Buch caves, also known as silver sand caves, were used to extract sand and reach deeper into the slope than it appears from the outside.

From nordbayern.de: The beautiful natural stratified spring emerges from the water-retaining stratum of the Opalinus Clay in the Brown Jura (Dogger). Erosion has washed out a small 'cave' in the overlying iron sandstone. Here and at the crack in the slope, the yellow-colored layers and red-brown iron deposits are clearly visible."

There really isn't anything really great to see. :-) You can save yourself the ascent.

The Catholic pilgrimage church “Maria Hilf” is located on the Mariahilfberg high above Neumarkt. The climb over the Stations of the Cross is rewarded with a beautiful view.
