The cave has a series of chambers formed over millions of years and features some of the finest examples of stalagmites and stalactites in Ireland. It is also renowned for its Viking connections; a massacre occurred in the cave in the 10th century, and evidence of this tragic event, including human remains and artifacts, has been discovered within.
