Oswaldhöhle, Natural cave in Wiesenttal, Germany.
The Oswaldhöhle extends through limestone formations with a 15-meter-long passage connecting northern and southern entrances at 455 meters elevation.
The cave system belongs to a protected archaeological heritage complex in Bavaria, containing evidence of early human activities in the Franconian region.
Local residents and nature enthusiasts regularly organize guided tours through the cave to educate visitors about regional geological formations.
Visitors need flashlights to navigate the dark passage between entrances, with optimal exploration conditions occurring from April through October.
The cave entrance dimensions make it particularly suitable for individuals under 1.60 meters in height to walk through without stooping.
