Major changes in the Vila Jezerkinja cave

Vlado Božić

Abstract

The entrance part of the Vila Jezerkinja cave has seen some major changes. At the beginning of the 20th century, there was a 2 m deep lake at the cave entrance. By the middle of the century, the water receded and the entrance was dry. The cave was then set up for tourist visits, and a big, iron gate was put at the entrance. The cave was opened for visits only for a short period of time, as the water started entering the cave. The gate was subsequently removed, and the water formed a lake at the cave entrance once again. Today the entrance to the cave is only possible by swimming or by boat.
