A super great place that you should see

The Steinerne Stadl is a natural rock bridge that originates from a collapsed cave. This is also called a passage cave. Remains of stone tools and ceramics have been found inside the Steinerne Stadel and it is now assumed that this cave also served as a cult room from the Neolithic period to the Iron Age (and possibly later). Its proximity to the Hoffmannshöhle indicates a resonance/connection. In front of the cave you can find a free-standing stone with two deep, artificially created stone bowls. The position and arrangement of the bowls (at the top, in a free-standing stone, so very impractical for grinding grain - without protection from rainwater ...) and their shape give rise to mystical speculations about their use.

The Eisenstein Cave, whose entrances are located at 380 m above sea level, is the most important thermal cave on the western edge of the southern Vienna Basin (Fischau Mountains). The 73 m deep and around 2 km long, shaft-like cave is located on a fracture zone parallel to the slope (thermal line) in young tertiary breccia (sausage marble). The thermal spring at the deepest point of the cave has a temperature of around 15.5 °C. Collapsed blocks and corrosion forms characterize the fissures richly decorated with coral and popcorn sinter.

Beautiful memorial stone with rest area

08/08/2023 - The ruin has something special, the chapel has already been renovated - maybe something will happen again soon.

The Schusterkreuz stood on the forest path to Eisenstadt, ½ hour from Hornstein. Since 2010 there has been a kind of cobbler's stone at the point where a cobbler is said to have frozen to death while walking.

Good restaurant, invites you to linger.
