War Memorial with Lion Sculpture (Naturpark Fränkische Schweiz - Frankenjura)

It certainly took a long time to create such a monument. Hats off and if you deal with the story, it will certainly make you think about the past...

Voithöhle Cave

Highlight • Cave

Nice but flat cave. The cave is a long tube stretching horizontally into the mountain, it is mostly uncomfortable to crawl. The total length should be 100m.
