Indian Caverns, Show cave in Spruce Creek, Pennsylvania, US.

The cave extends into two main sections, with the Giant's Hall featuring passages reaching 60 feet in height and the Historic Cave containing lower-ceiling rooms.

Native American tribes, including the Susquehannock, Algonkian, and Iroquois, utilized this limestone cave system until the early eighteenth century for shelter and ceremonies.

Harold Wertz established Indian Caverns as a public attraction in 1929, creating exhibits of Native American artifacts discovered within the cave system.

The Western Pennsylvania Conservancy transformed the former tourist attraction into a protected bat habitat in 2017, restricting access to the cave interior.

The Grotto of the Wah-Wah-Taysee contains zinc sulfide deposits that create a natural phosphorescent glow when combined with calcite formations.
