Grotte di Villanova, Natural cave system near Villanova, Italy.
The Villanova Caves extend through multiple levels of limestone formations, containing underground chambers, passages, and geological structures shaped by water erosion.
Local residents discovered the caves in 1925 during the construction of a water supply system for the surrounding municipalities.
The caves serve as an educational center for geology students and researchers who study the formation patterns of stalactites and stalagmites.
Guided tours of the caves last approximately two hours and include safety equipment, while maintaining a constant temperature of 11 degrees Celsius.
The cave system contains rare mineral formations and specialized underground ecosystems that support various species of invertebrates.
