Barlang POSTOJNSKA JAMA - Postojna
Throughout its history the Postojna Cave has always posed a great challenge for daring explorers who have shown enormous effort and persistence (and managed) to penetrate further and further into the underground world.
The most interesting passages were discovered in 1818. by Luka Čeč and no later than a year after the Postojna Cave was already set up as a show cave. In 1872, railway tracks were laid in the cave and in 1884 electricity was installed.
Nowadays visitors can satisfy their curiosity by learning about how the caves came to existance, by having a look at the passages and chambers, and above all by looking at stalagmites rising up from the floor of the cave and stalactites hanging down from its roof, how they are joined as pillars, creased as curtains and lined up in all kinds of fatastic forms.
Part of the visit to the cave is done on the train and part of it on foot.
