At a length of 165 metres, Kristallhöhle Pfaffensprung near Wassen is the second largest crystal cave in Switzerland. The entrance to the cave is 15 minutes’ walk away from Wassen.
The cave has been worked ever since the Middle Ages, and numerous mountain crystals have been brought to light over the centuries.

Note: old clothes, a flashlight and a helmet (bike helmet) are required for the tour of the cave, as it is cool, moist/damp and dark inside.
