The Mystery Grotto is located near Neuhaus an der Pegnitz and is part of the Karst Hiking Trail. The name of the grotto comes from a legend that tells of the "White Lady". This legend says that the cursed soul of Countess Kunigunde von Leuchtenburg, who lived in the 13th century, is said to appear in the grotto as a restless spirit. The grotto is about 12 meters wide and 16 meters long and offers an impressive hall. Beautiful ice formations can be admired, especially in winter. The entrance to the grotto is partially walled up and closed in winter during the bat protection period. The grotto is only accessible from April to September.

The entrance lies beautifully in the midst of the stately rocks. The cave itself is actually rather small at around 12 meters in diameter. Rather, it owes its charm to the mysterious entrance, which at first seems to duck away from the visitor. And the legend to which the name Mysteriengrotte goes back is, thanks to the scary factor, an additional mood factor. Because this is where the “White Woman” is supposed to appear again and again. And this legend even has a true origin. Because the "White Woman" is said to be the cursed soul of Countess Kunigunde von Leuchtenburg, who lived at the foot of the Plassenburg in the 13th century. She murdered her two children, believing that the infants would stand in the way of her remarriage to Albrecht the Handsome, Burgrave of Nuremberg. Despite extensive penance in later, still unmarried days and the founding of a monastery, which she presided over as abbess, her restless spirit is said to have haunted the Mystery Grotto since her death.

This cave is just amazing. Good walkable.

The passage is easy to walk on, a board provides information about the formation of the grottos

Grandiose cave with a small "lake" inside. Definitely take a flashlight with you. From the end of October to the beginning of April, the cave serves as a roost for the bats.

Absolute highlight! The cave impresses with its size! A great experience!

Easily and safely accessible rock cave
