Românești-Höhle, Cave system in Românești, Romania.

The cave stretches across three levels with a total length of 1450 meters, featuring a main entrance that measures 9.5 meters wide and 2 meters high.

Archaeological excavations in 1949 revealed cave bear bones and Neolithic pottery, which are now displayed at the Banat Museum in Timișoara.

The cave hosts annual concerts every third Sunday of October, attracting orchestras and soloists from more than 35 countries worldwide.

Access requires following National Road DN68A from Deva to Lugoj, followed by a one-hour walk from Românești village to reach the cave entrance.

Researchers discovered stone tools in 2022 that indicate the presence of modern humans approximately 40,000 years ago in this location.
