Small tunnel located on a beautiful path

From the former Munzinger limestone quarry "Oberes Steingrüble" only the rear 20 m high quarrying wall with numerous crevices and caves remains. For the "Erzknappenlochhöhle" (approx. 2 m high and 8 m deep) a Neolithic settlement is assumed based on flint finds. The 13,000 square meter quarry has been a natural monument since 1979. The open rock face offers a habitat for a special flora and fauna: a pair of kestrels has had its eyrie here for years. Pipistrelle and serotine bats find winter quarters here. Lizards, insects and spiders colonize the sun-warmed steep face. Mosses and lichens form the rather inconspicuous flora.

At this point / I would like to quickly / say something about the source (whereby it corresponds to the art of poetry / if this 'source' is a 'well'): To quote the incomparable humorist Heinz Erhardt (1909 - 1979), who was known to a wide audience for his word jokes and "Noch'n poem", with a short quatrain: "There is certainly much beauty in on the element, the wet. Because you can drink the water. But you can - also leave it." (H.Erhardt)

The caves are a few meters from the path. But you have to scramble up the slope and a few stone steps to reach it.

In the Middle Ages, the Radsstube had a water wheel about 10 meters in size, which was operated via an inlet in order to transport water from a mine shaft located in it (now filled) and a chain of buckets from the shaft.
