Syrau Dragon’s Cave

Syrau's dragon cave is one of the Most Beautiful Caves in Germany and is about 16 meters underground. The legendary Vogtland underworld was discovered in 1928. Several dripstones, crystal-clear lakes, and water-shaped halls were discovered during quarry work. Today, visitors can marvel at Saxony's only show cave and learn fascinating facts about its creation and discovery on a guided tour. There are 330 steps down to a 10°C cold cave. It gets its name from a Vogtland legend about a dragon who was once responsible for his misfortune in Syrau. The incredible cave panorama invites you to an adventure for the entire family. Between May and August, the Dragon's Cave is a one-of-a-kind setting for a spectacular laser show. On the ground, children can burn off steam on the playground and in the new Terra Vira – Living Earth – adventure garden, while parents can unwind with a cup of coffee in the magnificent cave park.

Drachenhöhle translates as "dragon's cave" and is made up of mystical rock formations and crystal-clear underground lakes that gleam in green. The cave was discovered by chance by construction workers in 1928, and it was opened to the public a few months later. Today, a variety of events draw visitors to the cave, including laser shows that illuminate the spectacular 'Walhalla' cavern during the summer months.
