Daneil's Cave

The Daneilshöhle, also called Robber's Cave, located on the north side of the mountain range called Huy in the district of Harz in Saxony- Anhalt.

The Daneilshöhle forms in a rock wall of the middle Buntsandstein three interconnected spaces that are protected. The cavities are apparently caused by Aufwaschung in the Tertiary or during the Ice Age, ie geological origin.

Leave holes for locking bars and vertical walls realize that the Daneilshöhle was enlarged by human hands. You should have possibly served as a hermitage and in the early modern period as a hideout for highwaymen and robbers in the Middle Ages. In the criminal trial of Simon Bingel helmet from Halberstadt, who was called thousand devils, and who was executed in June 1600 for murder and other acts, it is called as a crime scene.
