Jettenhöhle

The Jettenhöhle is a natural cave formation in Lower Saxony that descends deep underground and contains multiple passages and chambers. Its interior displays limestone formations that have developed over thousands of years.

The cave has been a site of human activity for thousands of years, as shown by archaeological discoveries within its passages. These finds suggest people used it as shelter and a place of gathering in prehistoric times.

The cave holds meaning for the local community as a symbol of their natural heritage and connection to the land. Visitors often come to experience this geological landmark and reflect on the region's deep past.

The cave is accessible only through guided tours, so advance booking is necessary before visiting. Sturdy footwear is essential since the ground can be uneven and slippery in places.

The cave maintains a constant cool temperature year-round, which creates specific conditions for mineral growth. These stable conditions allow stalactites and stalagmites to form throughout different sections.
