Kielce, wzgórze Kadzielnia, ul. Krakowska, woj. świętokrzyskie
The Underground Tourist Route in Kielce leads through a system of karst caves in the Kadzielnia hill. It is formed by three connected caves: the Explorers' Cave, the Prochownia and the Fissure on Kadzielnia, merged under the common name Explorers' Cave. The total length of the system is 392 m (vertical range 22 m), and the accessible route is 140 m long.
The site is located in Kielce, within the Kadzielnia hill, on Krakowska Street. The karst caves formed in Devonian limestones and were exposed during quarrying (until 1962).
Inside you can see Devonian fossils (corals, brachiopods, nautiloids), tectonic features, mineral veins, stalactites, stalagmites and the characteristic terra rossa (red soil).
Guided tours, in groups, for a fee. The route was explored and connected by the Świętokrzyski Speleology Club; opened to visitors in November 2012.
Season: April-October.
