This mysterious "Theler" experimental tunnel, accessible with caution, can be explored with a headlamp. Water drips from the rock and descends approximately 10 meters. Spiders hang around the tunnel in abundance, waiting for visitors. The glittering stone walls glow mysteriously, and one feels transported to another world. A small information board hangs at the entrance to the tunnel: "The knight Conrad von Theler, who lived in Höckendorf, had ore mined here in the 14th century following the advice of a dowser."

This small cave/cellar formerly belonged to the Berreuth manor and served as an icehouse/storage room. The cellar is open to the public, but a flashlight or headlamp is recommended.

According to legend, the shallow cave in the rock (quartz-armed porphyry or rhyolite) was once much larger, and three fairies lived there. On a full moon night, a minstrel who had previously played at the fair in Hintergersdorf (spa town of Hartha) passed by. The three fairies had laid out laundry on the meadow to bleach. The musician picked up a lace cloth and took it with him. However, when he got home, instead of the cloth, he held a gray cobweb in his hand. Before sunrise, he returned the cobweb to its place, where it became a lace cloth again, just as the other laundry disappeared with the first rays of sunlight. Since then, the fairies have not been seen again, and the cave has become a shallow hole.

It's just incredibly beautiful here 😊.

Located in a beautiful spot. Info: This was probably created by human hands. The cave is made of quartz-poor porphyry. According to legend, the shallow cave in the rock was once much larger, and three fairies lived there.

Not open when we visited, but definitely worth another visit.

In dry weather you can get in and out cleanly. 😁👍
