Die Heinrichshöhle





Der Höhlenführer bringt mit einer Taschenlampe einen Tropfstein zum leuchten.

Heinrichshöhle is one of the most bone-rich sites in Germany. Thousands of bone remains from the Ice Age (about 30,000 years old), a 2.35 m long complete cave bear skeleton, a lifelike replica of the cave bear and the cave hyena leave visitors amazed. Fantastic sparkling stalactites and sinter formations up to 230,000 years old line the paths. You will pass fantasy formations such as "little washerwoman, fish in the pantry, Cologne Cathedral, beehive" and "leaning tower of Pisa". The guided walk is bathed in a natural impressive light from the LED lighting completed in 2014. Part of the first lighting system from 1905 has been preserved as a technical monument. In the front part, the formed passage profiles show the dissolving power of the water on the approx. 380 million years old limestone, which has become effective over many decades. In the rear part the visitor is amazed by the up to 20 m high fissures. The Heinrichshöhle is part of a 3.2 km long cave system that has been explored so far.

The normal tour of this magical underground kingdom lasts about 40 minutes. Special thematic tours, educational programs and guided tours for children are offered.

Here you will find all important information at a glance:
