The cave has been known since the late 19th century, but the name of the small Devil's cave was first mentioned only in the 1950s.
In 1977 archaeologist Juris Urtāns listed the cave in the list of cult caves. Near the Small Devil's cave the source of Wisdom flows out, in which, as legends tell, mothers have been washing children so they would grow wise.
Please, remember that all caves are located in the territory of the Gauja National Park, and please respect the ancient geological nature monuments that keep the history of land formation!
