Kelpius Cave

This is about the new book, "American Aurora: Environment and Apocalypse in the Life of Johannes Kelpius", where author Timothy Grieve-Carlson, digs into the history of Johannes Kelpius. The mystic Monk was a tremendously influential but comprehensively misunderstood radical Protestant theologian from Transylvania, who settled in what is now Wissahickon Valley Park in 1694. Please check it out, thanks! It was hosted by Friends of the Wissahickon at Valley Green Inn

If you've visited Wisashickon Valley Park, you're probably familiar with the story of Johannes Kelpius, but what you have heard might be more fiction than fact.
