The correct name of the Kanne Caves should actually read: The Riemst Marl Quarry. Limestone has been quarried here, by hand, by so-called block breakers since the 14th century. This created a corridor system some 16 kilometres long.
Nowadays, there is a fossil museum, an underground chapel, you can get guided tours of the corridor system and the cave is used for growing mushrooms, maturing wines and beers and fermenting rice pudding for the best cave pies.
