Schnurbusch Karst Window is located on the grounds of St. Joseph's Catholic Church in the village of Apple Creek, which was formerly Schnurbusch. A side of a fairly shallow sinkhole opens allowing spring water to flow over a scenic ledge, creating a small waterfall. The water turns and flows under a walking bridge and then re-enters the earth through a swallow hole. The Church has developed the area into a well-maintained, relaxing amphitheatre appropriate for meditation and reflection.
Although the area is open to the public, please respect any services that are being held, either in the church or the amphitheatre. Leave quietly, and come back at a more convenient time.
Enjoy this area. The church and cemetery are both worth a little extra time.
I just ask that you email the date that the altar was erected in the natural amphitheatre before you log your find. It's located over the little bridge at the karst window. Enjoy.
