Top 5 Caves 메틀라흐 주변

A tranquil limestone cave on the summit of the Stromberg near Niederkontz – formed by shell limestone and a former quarry, with delicate stalactite structures. A fascinating, natural cavern space off the beaten track. Tip: Bring a flashlight – and stay under the rock roof to truly experience the soft light and tranquility within.

Very interesting rock and great view👍

The Marian pilgrimage site of Lourdes is located in the French Pyrenees and is visited by a large number of people every year, including many sick people who are hoping for a cure. The devotional image of Our Lady has become widespread - not only in France - everywhere, as here in Greimerath, believers have built Lourdes grottos. The ecclesiastical commemoration day "Our Lady in Lourdes" is on February 11th, this is the anniversary of the apparition of Mary (1858), when Our Lady appeared to 14-year-old Bernadette Soubirous in a rock grotto not far from Lourdes. Bernadette later became a nun and died at the age of only 35. On December 8th (the feast of the Immaculate Conception of Mary) in 1933, she was canonized by Pope Pius XI. The day of remembrance of the Lourdes Madonna is also World Day of the Sick.

There is an old tunnel that is locked in a rustic style. Definitely worthwhile as a motif.

There are many small caves here, some of which are also accessible. You should just be very careful because parts break in again and again.

Lourdes grotto The grotto, built by Matthias Staudt and Matthias Diederich, (1906) after your return from a Lourdes pilgrimage, they recreated the pilgrimage church in Lourdes, which you clearly succeeded in doing. A plaque in front of the Lourdes grotto gives the year 1912 as the construction date. Http://www.greimerath-hochwald.de/tourismus/sehenswuerdheiten

Unfortunately, this part can be overlooked. Well worth looking out for

Very impressive rock formations and caves. Plus a great view from the top.
