The Teufelhof Basel is a hotel in Basel's old town in two historic buildings at Leonhardsgraben 47-49. Parts of the building complex (Leonhardgraben 47) and the cellar (archaeological monument) are listed in the canton of Basel-Stadt's inventory of monuments. The idea behind the operation is to operate independent art and culture as part of a "self-subsidization" of the cultural operation through a parallel hotel and restaurant operation. Due to objections, the permit had to be obtained before the Swiss Federal Court before the opening. After this six-and-a-half-year waiting period, the hotel opened on April 28, 1989. The Teufelhof Basel now employs 70 people. The hotel consists of two buildings, the art hotel and the gallery hotel. The art hotel has eight rooms and one suite, all of which are designed as habitable works of art. The gallery hotel has 20 rooms and four junior suites and is also used as an exhibition space. Nine art rooms were designed by various artists as experiential spatial art. The artists are free to paint directly on the walls or work with materials in the room. The Teufelhof also regularly supports artists with exhibitions or projects of various kinds. The cultural operations include a theater with cabaret performances and satirical programs. The promotion of regional individual artists and groups - from accompanying rehearsals in the in-house theater to premieres in the Teufelhof - also plays an important role in the program planning. The theater is financed by the Teufelhof Basel, but since 2002 has also received a contribution from the two cantons of Basel-Stadt and Basel-Landschaft. In addition to the cultural operations in the sense of the theater and the art hotel, the house also houses two restaurants, the gourmet restaurant "Bel Etage" and the restaurant "Atelier". The house also houses a coffee bar, a gallery hotel with changing exhibitions that is offered as a free platform for the artists, a wine shop "falstaff" and a small archaeological museum, embedded in the historic Basel city walls from the 11th and 13th centuries.

Here you have to make a small detour from the Westweg. But definitely worth it. Sure-footedness and good shoes are recommended for the short ascent. The cave is bigger than you think at first glance. You can't really see the opening from below.

interesting spot; unfortunate not so quiet anymore since a lot of noise from the road rises up. Watch you head when you climb up the steps to the cave

It is difficult to imagine that a monk should once have laid here 😯

Actually just a small cave but still fascinating to imagine that a monk is said to have lived in it 😮

Has something mysterious about it. you should definitely have a look.

Good shoes and a desire for adventure. That is all it takes to take the climb to the Bruderloch.

A flashlight and sturdy shoes are mandatory here
