Mramornica cave

One of the largest in Istria, it is a true jewel of the Istrian underground. The bravest, curious individuals conquered fear and descended into it back in 1770, when it was first mentioned. Not far from Brtonigla, after nearly vertical stairs, stands the entrance to one of the biggest underground halls in Istria. The oval room is really large: it is almost one hundred meters long and about fifty meters wide. Water drips from the gentle arch of the vaulted room, creating ornaments and stalactites of different colors, stalagmites up to 13 m high giving Mramornica particular charm. The maintained cave trails offer a view of the inaccessible parts of the cave that, because of their mysteriousness are even more attractive.
