About Cave Without a Name:
A cave without a name is 66 degrees year-round
There are parts of A Cave Without a Name that are yet to be explored, because of the water that runs through the cave. It’s believed that the first human contact with the cave began in the early 20th century, when a small ranch animal became trapped in the small external opening of the cave, known as a sinkhole. The cave went largely unnoticed again until the 1920s during the era of prohibition, when a small moonshine distillery was installed in the uppermost cavern. It again fell into obscurity until three local children went exploring beyond the location of the abandoned sinkhole in 1935. These children are believed to be the first who entered the main chambers of the cave. After the discovery, Jim Horn from San Antonio purchased the property to open it as a commercial venture.
In 1939, the stairwell into the cave was constructed with 126 steps descending to about 80 ft bellow the surface. The cave received its name after its official opening in 1939, as verified by a newspaper article that still hangs in the cave's gift shop. A state-wide contest held in 1940 would determine the caves name. A young boy suggested that the cave "was too beautiful to have a name", so he received the $50 cash prize award.
