Remete Cave

The cave extends 44 meters in length and descends 15 meters vertically through white limestone formations along the hillside of Remeteszőlős.

Archaeological excavations of the cave commenced in 1914 under Ottokár Kadić, revealing evidence of human habitation from the Stone Age through the ice age.

The cave received its name from a solitary religious individual who found refuge within its walls after the Hungarian Pauline Order disbanded in 1782.

Visitors require only basic equipment such as a lamp or headlight to explore the cave, which remains accessible throughout all seasons without specialized gear.

The cave system features geological formations shaped by ancient water flows, though many structures have diminished through natural freezing and cracking processes.
