Einödhöhle, Natural monument cave in Pfaffstätten, Austria.
The Einödhöhle features two entrances leading through passages with distinct geological formations, including the Throne Room and Debris Hall at 371 meters elevation.
The cave system, formed approximately 20 million years ago through coastal erosion processes, was officially opened to visitors on April 22, 1925.
Local names within the cave reflect natural features, such as the Eroded Wall passage and the Bat Corridor, connecting the western and eastern entrances.
From October to May, entry to the cave interior is restricted to protect the small horseshoe bats during their winter hibernation period.
The cave represents the largest preserved young tertiary surf cave formation along the western edge of the Vienna Basin.
