Caves Sloupsko-Šošůvské jeskyně

Caves Sloupsko-sosuvske jeskyne are a wide complex of passages and domes in two levels, connected by stately subterranean gorges even 80 meters deep. The cave is the richest finding place of skeletons of cave animals (beers, lions, hyenas). Eliscina jeskyne has a very wide stalactite decor and a grandiose acoustics, therefore concerts of chamber-music take place here. During the reconstruction in 1997 the Stupnovita propast (gorge) has been bridged over so visitors can enjoy the uncommon sight.
