Krásnohorská Cave is a karst cave situated at the northern foot of the Silická planina Plain, in the Slovak Karst, 6.5 km southeast of Rožňava, in Slovakia. With unique natural decorations of bizarre shapes and unusual structure composed almost entirely of calcium, it is currently listed by the Guinness Book of Records as the cave containing the largest stalagmite in existence, generally accepted as being about 12 metres (39 ft) in diameter and 32.7 metres (107 ft) in height. It grows significantly in volume every year as the incessant drips solidify.
