Kraushöhle, Show cave in Landl, Austria.
Located in Gamser Nothklamm, the Kraushöhle extends 340 meters into Annerlbauernkogel Peak, featuring white lime water formations and gypsum crystals.
Franz Kraus initiated systematic exploration of the cave in 1881, leading to its public opening in 1882 with the installation of electric lighting.
The cave received recognition as a cultural monument in 1913 and now forms part of the UNESCO Global Geoparks Network.
Tours operate from May to October, with daily visits at 10:00, 12:00, 14:00, and 16:00 during Austrian summer holidays, requiring sturdy shoes and warm clothes.
The cave stands as Europe's only show cave where the combination of lime and hydrogen sulphide creates natural gypsum formations.
