The Zwergenhöhle ("Cave of the dwarfs") is a limestone cave in Lindlar (North Rhine-Westphalia/Germany). Pieces of pre-historic pottery were found inside the cave. Today, it only consists of the entrance area, which is 2 m high, 5 m broad and 7 m deep.

Local legends tell that the cave was inhabited by dwarfs, which disappeared after they had been disappointed by their human neighbours.

Note: The "official" coordinates from OpenStreetMap (used for the MP site page) differ from the "official" coordinates from the Wikipedia page (51.056389,7.443056).
It seems unlikely that they refer to different entrances as the cave is supposed to have only one entrance. I chose the OpenStreetMap coordinatees as the map is more detailed and they are linked to a footpath (which is not marked in Google Maps). - I hope that I or someone else will review this on site soon.
