The Mühlheim rock cave is a very special cave
The karst landscape of the Swabian Alb is criss-crossed by caves. The Swabian Alb is considered the landscape with the most caves in Central Europe.
The Mühlheim Rock Cave is located at the beginning of the Danube breakthrough valley near Mühlheim in the Donaubergland. The cave was discovered directly above the Danube in the rock above the “old town” of Mühlheim.
The Mühlheim Rock Cave has been designated a special “Geopoint” of the UNESCO Swabian Alb Geopark
Outstanding scenic and geological sights in the Swabian Jura are awarded the “Geopoint” seal in the UNSECO Swabian Jura Geopark. The Mühlheim rock cave has been part of this for several years.
