Despite all the negative Yelp reviews, I actually enjoyed this tour. I have never seen a real live…read moresea grotto before and to be underground in a miners cave and a lake was pretty cool.
Europe's largest underground sea grotto! It was an old mining cave in 1913 then it got flooded which became the grotto.
We did a walking tour through the tunnels and then a boat ride. Our tour guide spoke German and then used an audio player to play the English translation.
There was no light for 20 years and they used blind horses to lead and carry equipment. The lake doesn't seem to be that deep from the boat. No signs of animal life. The movie Three Musketeers was filmed here with a 20 minute cave scene.
Highly recommend. It can be a bit chilly in the cave and be aware that there are areas with steps. After the tour, you're allowed to wander around as you head towards the exit.
