Top 17 Caves 어퍼 루사티아

In the lower church, we barely squeeze through the passage to the secret hiding place, where parts of the Prague Cathedral treasury were stored in 1421. Back outside, we're greeted by the library window, which served as the inspiration for Caspar David Friedrich's painting "The Dreamers." https://youtu.be/qvBJv_Fnfis

To the Dark Tilke As far as I know, the Dark Tilke is a former quarry. Stones for the construction of the Jonsdorf church were quarried there.

The money cellar is an interesting rock formation

Sculpture of Siegfried the dragon slayer, in a rock grotto in the Drehsaer Schweiz region. Info: A figure from various Germanic sagas, especially the Nibelung saga. Key elements of Siegfried's character are superhuman strength, great courage, and valor.

Grottos in Bärwalde. Two more grottos are located nearby. Magnificent structures.

The White Stone marks a regional geological feature. Here, a rock formation consisting of a quartz vein emerges, striking for its atypical white color. This formation is also known as the Karasek Cave, named after the robber captain Johannes Karasek. This is said to have been the meeting place of the gang before and after several raids. While the robber captain actually existed, legend has it that his treasure, which has not yet been found, is hidden at this location. The story of the robber captain and information on the geology can be found in the Karasek Museum in Seifhennersdorf. Coming from Großschönau, it's worth taking a detour about 300 meters from the road and then continuing on to the Karasek Museum.

The White Stone is a rock formation up to six meters high in the Hofebusch forest near Spitzkunnersdorf in Upper Lusatia. Erosion also created the so-called Karasek Cave in this rock.

The dragon slayer Siegfried is apparently still sitting on the tail of the slain dragon. However, the hero himself is no longer complete, although it remains unclear whether the weather conditions have simply had an effect or whether destruction is the cause. The absence of the right arm suggests the latter.
