Biggest underground lake in Europe

The “Seegrotte” at Hinterbrühl is a disused plaster mine with Europe’s largest subterranean lake (6,200sqm). After a natural disaster in 1912 the mine got flooded with 20 million liters of water. That’s how the lake came about. During your visit you will enjoy a walk through a fantastic labyrinth of corridors and halls as well as a boat ride on the lake. It is open all year round.
