Beautiful rock formations in the forest

Beautiful view back over the Vils

Rock formations are now majestically visible in March. They soon disappear into the sea of leaves and are then almost invisible again—unfortunately!

The "house without a roof", as it is officially called, is a cave dwelling that is still in use in the Upper Palatinate town of Kallmünz. The cave dwelling is located north of the Vils at the southern end of the Schlossberg, on which the Kallmünz castle ruins stand. The entrance is set back from Vilsgasse at the foot of a 20-meter-high limestone wall of the Schlossberg, and access leads between the listed residential buildings at Vilsgasse 26 and Vilsgasse 28. The house consists of a natural cave in the dolomite rock, the opening of which is closed off by a plastered wall with a door and windows. Inside there is a hallway, a living room, two storage rooms fitted into rock niches and a historic smokehouse. The oldest known mention of the cave dwelling can be found in a document kept in the land registry archive in Amberg with the year 1707. In the 19th century it was also known as the "house under the rock". In 1908 it was sold to the owner of the blacksmith's shop across the street, and it remains in his family's possession. The last permanent resident left the house in 1937 because he had developed rheumatism due to the damp cave air.

Beautiful hiking trail, quiet nature

The "House Without a Roof," as it is officially known, is a still-used cave dwelling in the Upper Palatinate market town of Kallmünz. The cave is located north of the Vils River at the southern end of the Schlossberg (Castle Hill), upon which the Kallmünz Castle ruins stand. The entrance is set back from Vilsgasse (Vils Lane) at the foot of an approximately 20-meter-high limestone cliff of the Schlossberg, and access is via a passage between the listed residential buildings at Vilsgasse 26 and Vilsgasse 28. The house consists of a natural cave in the dolomite rock, the opening of which is closed off by a plastered wall with a door and windows. Inside, there is a hallway, a living room, two storage rooms fitted into rock niches, and a historic smokehouse. The oldest known mention of the cave dwelling is found in a document dated 1707, preserved in the land registry archive in Amberg. In the 19th century, it was also referred to as the "House Under the Rock." In 1908, it was sold to the owner of the blacksmith's shop located across the road, and it remains in his family's possession. The last permanent resident left the house in 1937 because he developed rheumatism due to the damp cave air.

The brewing tradition is also related to the Naab. The numerous inns from the town entrance at the Naab Bridge to the Upper Gate needed space for storage and every winter blocks of ice were sawn out of the frozen Naab and brought to the cellars by cart so that the temperature of the cellar for the bottom-fermented beer did not exceed nine in the summer degrees rose.

Since autumn 2014, one of the beer cellars has been used as a music and cabaret stage, Keller No 10. The aim is to establish a cabaret stage that will enable cultural workers to stage performances in the areas of music, theater and cabaret in general bring. On the one hand, this creates an attractive performance opportunity and, on the other hand, closes a large cultural gap in the city of Burglengenfeld.
