The cave extends 23 meters in length, with a width between 2 to 4 meters and reaches a height of 6 meters in the Upper Oxfordian limestone formation.

Between 2007 and 2010, excavations covering 16 square meters of the cave revealed Neanderthal remains and artifacts dating back more than 49,000 years.

The discovery of a 41,500-year-old decorated mammoth ivory pendant with over 50 sequential punctures represents early human artistic expression in Europe.

Visitors can reach the cave from the villages of Mirów and Bobolice, where educational programs explain the archaeological findings and Neanderthal occupation.

Genetic analysis of a Neanderthal molar found in layer D2 connects the site to Northern Caucasus populations, providing insights into ancient migration patterns.
