The Balver Kulturhöhle impresses right from the first step: a gigantic natural dome, up to eleven meters high, which has been used since the Old Stone Age and is today considered an extraordinary event venue. Where Neanderthals and cave bears once found shelter, you can now experience concerts, theater, and the traditional Schützenfest (marksmen's festival) in an acoustics that is second to none. The cave is only accessible as part of events or guided tours, but a glance at the mighty entrance is enough to reveal why it fascinates as Europe's largest open hall cave. https://www.sauerland.com/de/neusta-pois/balver-hoehle-europas-groesste-kulturhoehle
