"The cave is located near the village of Rabisha, in the district
of Vidin. The beginnings of the formation of the cave go back 15 million
years ago on a hill which is 461 meters high. The cave has a number of
accessible halls and galleries which were inhabited during the Bronze
Age and which contain remnants of settlements and drawings on the walls.
The remnants in the largest hall bear evidence to the existence of life
from 3100 years to 900 years before our era - i.e. the early Iron Age.
In one of the side galleries a large number of ritual drawings can be
seen, which are among the masterpieces of late prehistoric art in
Europe. In all probability, this gallery was a cult shrine of the cave
prehistoric settlement. The Magoura Cave has been declared a monument of
culture and a remarkable natural site. Provisions have been made for
its preservation. The cave is open to visitors." -http://whc.unesco.org
