Hellnahellir : ウィキペディア英語版 | Hellnahellir
Hellnahellir is the largest man-made or artificial cave in Iceland. It is located in Landsveit, South Iceland. The cave is almost long and the walls are covered with engravings. Its age is unknown but it is most probably from 12th or 13th century. Hellar in Landsveit is a farm in the southern part of Iceland, approximately one and a half hours drive from Reykjavík. To those who in one way or another root from there, this place is one of great beauty, intriguing family history, happy memories and the marvellous adventures of childhood. To others Hellar is mostly known as the place where you find Hellnahellir, Iceland’s biggest manmade cave. ==Hellnahellir== Hellnahellir is Iceland’s biggest man made cave, approximately 50 meters long. It has two exits, one at each end, and five chimneys built up from the ceiling whose purpose is likely to have been to provide daylight and perhaps to allow smoke from fireplaces to escape from the cave. The cave is built into the mountain Skarðsfjall and lies far enough beneath the surface for it to be free of frost in the winter. In fact the temperature in the cave is about the same the whole year round. The name Hellnahellir roughly translates into ''The Cave at Caves'' – ''hellir'' meaning ''cave'' and Hellar being both the name of the farm where Hellnahellir is located and also plural for the word ''cave''.
