description
It is 420 meters long and has four corridors up to thirty meters high and sixty meters wide. The largest and rearmost of the four halls is also called the “concert hall” due to its size. The cave has numerous stalactites and stalagmites as well as tuff stones.
history
In 1967, researchers found stone tools in one of the karst caves in the nature reserve. It is therefore assumed that the area was already used by humans in prehistoric times.
