Vass Imre Cave

This extensive karst cave system features a seven-meter deep entrance shaft decorated with abundant flowstone formations including columns, soda straws, and helictites displaying distinctive orange coloration.

Discovered on August 31, 1954, by speleologists from the Technical University of Budapest, the cave underwent systematic exploration revealing multiple passages including the Orange Torrent and Black Siphon sections.

The cave serves primarily educational purposes rather than commercial tourism, promoting awareness of karst environments and geological heritage through guided excursions that emphasize environmental conservation and scientific understanding.

Guided tours operate from April to September with advance registration required, accommodating groups of up to ten participants who must bring their own lighting equipment for the one-hour underground journey.

The cave contains archaeological artifacts from the Hallstatt Culture including pottery fragments and iron weapon parts, suggesting ancient human activity in this underground environment thousands of years ago.
