The sandstone caves of Liebegg. Sandstone was mined in Liebegg near Gränichen and the surrounding area over 350 years ago. The most significant occurrence was found here in the Liebegger forest very close to Liebegg Castle. Stone blocks weighing up to 3 tons were transported from the old quarries. The construction of the church in Gränichen, completed in 1663, gnawed at the rock deposits in the area.
