Drachenhöhle Syrau, Show cave in Rosenbach, Germany.
The limestone cave system extends 350 meters underground, featuring stalactites, stalagmites, and natural stone formations at a depth of 16 meters.
Quarry master Ludwig Undeutsch discovered the cave system during limestone mining operations in 1928, leading to its development as a tourist attraction.
Local folklore tells of a dragon named Justus who resided near Syrau, influencing the cave's name and remaining a central figure in regional stories.
The cave maintains a constant temperature of 8 degrees Celsius throughout the year and requires visitors to join 40-minute guided tours.
The Walhalla chamber reaches heights of 9 meters and stretches 40 meters, containing crystal lakes that mirror the surrounding rock formations.
