  The cave

The "Caverna Generosa" ("Generoso Cave") is located on Monte Generoso, near the border between Italy and Switzerland.

During scientific excavations many fossils were found, mainly belonging to a now extinct species of bear: Ursus spelaeus, the Cave Bear.

For this reason the cave is better Known as "The Cave of the Bear".
