Amsel Falls, Cascade in Saxon Switzerland National Park, Germany.
The waterfall forms a 10-meter drop where the Grünbach stream flows through a narrow gorge in the Amselgrund valley.
The stream's original course from 1548 went through a cave until the 19th century when engineers redirected it over rocks for enhanced viewing.
The waterfall appears in early artworks by Christian Gottlob Hammer, who depicted it along the Malerweg hiking trail in Saxon Switzerland.
The information office at Amselfall mountain hut operates from April to October, providing details about the national park and local trails.
The water flows through a controllable weir wicket system that creates different flow intensities over the collapsed cave called Amselloch.
