Lippold's Cave

Highlight • Cave

Robber Lippold
About an hour west of Alfeld, at the village of Brunkensen, lies the Lippoldshöhle. It consists of several rooms, one of which is called the kitchen, another is called the horse stable. A column in the rock is called the chimney. The robber Lippold used to live in this cave. So that one could not trace him so easily, he knocked down his horse's horseshoes. On all the paths that passed, he had attached wires that connected with a bell in the cave. If one of you passed by and hit the wire with your foot, the bell soon rang. Then Lippold came out of his cave, shot down the man and robbed him.
