Top 11 Caves 우르머스바흐 주변

Luckily I had my flashlight with me so I could shine further inside 😀

surprising sight when walking the theme path in our direction

I've shone in here before. Could see more than 20 m.

Caves bear witness to the former slate mining. You can shine a flashlight into the caves. I would rather not crawl in because of the danger of falling rocks.

The benches look very funny and are absolutely comfortable! If you look over your feet, it goes quite downhill ☺️

Inconspicuous, but worth the journey!

A welcome change for little explorers!!!

The Cave of the Brownies In the course of the earth's history, various mountain ranges were formed, which are continuously changing vertically and horizontally due to erosion and different phases of uplift and subsidence. The mountain located here was already identified in old field maps as "Heinzelmännchens Berg". Now we know from the legend of August Kopisch from 1836 that the brownies were at home in Cologne. According to this story, they helped the craftsmen in the guild lanes to do their work at night. This eager support came to an end when a curious tailor's wife tried to discover the unknown helpers in the night. They fled from Cologne and found in the Eifel, e.g. in Nachtsheim, a new home. From then on they made themselves at home in the mountains. To date, however, no one has seen the brownies. some of their doings in the night home betray their presence. Enclosure walls are repaired overnight - but no one knows how that happened. Outdoor facilities and gardens appear in new splendor - they have changed overnight. Shrubs and hedges were cut, changes in all corners. As a thank you for their actions and also to secure the home of the brownies for the future, their home was renovated in 2019.
