Baradla Cave - Aggtelek

Region: Northern Hungary
Sub-region: Miskolc & Surr.
Type of sight: Natural sights

The Baradla Cave is the most significant, the most studied, the longest and the richest cave not only in this region, but also in Hungary as a whole. Its best known natural entrance is situated near Aggtelek. Excavations in and around the cave have proven that it has been a shelter to man for more than 7000 years.
The first record of the cave was published in Basel in 1549. The first map of the Baradla cave was printed in 1831 in Hungarian and German, a result of Imre Vass research. The first major construction project was carried out in 1806 when Palatine Joseph visited the cave. Many articles promoting the cave were published at the end of the nineteenth century, and the number of visitors increased with the opening of a new artificial entrance at the so-called Voros-to (Red Lake). Further attempts to enhance tourism were initiated in the 1920s when the Josvafo exit and the interior walkways were completed. The most impressive change occurred when the electrical system was installed in 1935 and the visited sections were illuminated.

The Baradla Cave is open 365 days a year:
* From 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. (last tour leaves at 5 p.m.) between 1st April and 30th September, and on Saturdays during October.
* From 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. (last tour leaves at 3 p.m.) between 1st October and 31st March.

Useful information:
* The temperature in the cave is +10 C.
* The Voros-to (Red Lake) section of the cave is under reconstruction. It is due to be reopened in April 2005.
