Daneil's Cave, Natural cave monument in Huy, Germany.
The cave system contains three interconnected caverns within a Middle Bunter Sandstone rock face, each featuring its own entrance to the complex.
During the Middle Ages, this cave provided shelter for local communities and later became a hideout for highwaymen, including Simon Bingelhelm from Halberstadt.
The cave bears the name of a legendary robber, leading to its alternative designation as Räuberhöhle, which translates to Robber's Cave in English.
The cave formation exhibits signs of human modifications, including holes for doorframes and vertical walls, indicating deliberate expansions of the natural structure.
Geological processes during the Neogene Period or Ice Age shaped these caverns through erosion, creating distinct patterns in the sandstone formations.
