This cave is something which I have found more or less on accident while following a path I have found. Curious about where it ends I came to a door made fom cast-iron. It was placed directly at a rock and behind you can see a cave with applied concrete at the ceiling and the wall. My theory behind this door is: The entry is near the former iron mill Rasselstein, a company whch produced tinplate and other products made from steel. This cave may have been built while WWII as shelter for the workers of the company to hide while raids of the alied airforces took place. An evidence for the theory is the door, which is very heavy and thick and the fact that the entry part of the case has been covered by concrete.
Trying to find some information about a shelter at that place was not successful until now. Any information is welcome.
