The Balver Höhle cave

On the contrary, it looks less like a typical cave and more like a gigantic tunnel leading into the mountain. It is not for nothing that it is also known as the "Dome of the Rock". Behind the Balver Höhle lies an eventful past that has made it famous. But the countless events that take place in the spacious interior of the Balver Höhle for up to 2,000 people have also contributed to the cave's national fame. These include not only concerts by top bands such as the "Fantastic Four", but also the "Balver Höhle Festival" and the numerous theater performances that delight visitors from near and far. Of course, the shooting festival of the Schützenbruderschaft St. Sebastian e.V., which the "Felsendom " turns into a unique experience every year, is not to be missed. And last but not least, there are of course the parties, which bring the cave to life day or night. Whether rock, pop or house: no club can match the atmosphere or acoustics that partygoers experience in the Balver Höhle.
