Nová rasovna, Underground cave system in Holštejn, Czech Republic

The cave extends through multiple levels with corridors spanning over 2 kilometers, featuring intricate passages and chambers within the Moravský kras landscape.

Initial exploration of the cave began in 1833 when two miners ventured into the underground passages at the request of Count Salm.

The cave contains geological formations named after their discoverers, including the Vaňous dome, named after the local miller who found it.

The entrance to the cave system descends vertically to reach the karst water level at approximately 410 meters above sea level.

The cave system connects with the Bílé vody stream, which flows through its lower levels before joining the Sloupský potok to form the Punkva river.
