Kubacher Crystal Cave, Crystal cave in Weilburg-Kubach, Germany.
The underground cave system contains numerous chambers with mineral formations and crystalline deposits extending through multiple geological layers of rock.
Discovered in 1974 during a search for a different cave mentioned in 19th-century mining records, the site opened to visitors in 1981.
The cave serves as an educational center where guided tours explain geological processes and scientific exploration methods used in cave research.
Visitors need to descend 347 steps to reach the cave entrance, where they encounter a constant temperature of 9°C and 85% relative humidity.
The cave features rare calcite and quartz crystal formations that developed over millions of years through mineral-rich water penetrating limestone cavities.
