Niagara Cave, Show cave in Fillmore County, Minnesota, US.
The cave system extends through multiple geological formations, featuring a natural underground stream, deep canyons, and mineral deposits along its passages.
Originally discovered in 1924 when a farmer searched for missing pigs, Niagara Cave opened for public tours in 1934 and became a recognized geological attraction.
The underground chapel within Niagara Cave serves as a wedding venue, connecting geological wonders with personal celebrations in a natural environment.
Visitors traverse one mile of cave passages and climb 275 steps during guided tours that maintain a constant temperature of 48 degrees Fahrenheit.
The cave contains a 60-foot underground waterfall, flowing through limestone formations shaped over millions of years by mineral-rich water erosion.

Minnesota contains numerous locations away from the main tourist circuits. The state stretches from the shores of Lake Superior to the southern prairies, encompassing historic lighthouses, underground mines, waterfalls, and Japanese gardens. Visitors find both natural landscapes and cultural sites that tell the story of the region's history. Notable locations include prehistoric rock carvings at Jeffers Petroglyphs Site, where indigenous peoples left their marks thousands of years ago, and sacred trees of Ojibwe culture. The geological formation known as Devil's Kettle, a waterfall whose course puzzled scientists for years, attracts visitors interested in natural phenomena. Historic mines provide insight into Minnesota's industrial past, while lighthouses recall the maritime history along the largest of the Great Lakes.
