The Atta-Höhle, also known as the Atta Cave, is one of the largest and most beautiful dripstone caves in Germany. Located in the town of Attendorn in the Sauerland region, this underground wonder attracts thousands of visitors each year, enchanted by the fairy-tale setting of stalactites, stalagmites, and crystal-clear chambers.

The cave was discovered by accident in 1907 during limestone quarrying. Since then, it has been open to the public and is one of the region’s most famous natural attractions. During a 40-minute guided tour, you walk through narrow passageways and large halls, past stunning rock formations created over thousands of years by dripping mineral-rich water.

The cave maintains a constant temperature of around 9 degrees Celsius, so warm clothing is recommended. Subtle lighting enhances the magical ambiance, highlighting the colors and shapes of the dripstone formations.

A highlight of the Atta-Höhle is the “Queen’s Hall”, a vast space with towering columns of stalactites and stalagmites. The cave also features rare aragonite crystals, a unique sight in such environments.

After your visit, relax at the on-site restaurant or café, or browse the shop for souvenirs and local products. The area around Attendorn offers further opportunities for hiking, boat trips on the Biggesee, and exploring the Sauerland region.

Visiting the Atta-Höhle is an awe-inspiring journey into the earth, where nature’s silent power has worked wonders over millennia.
