Facts and practical information

Jons Kapel is a rock bluff in Denmark on Bornholm's west coast, about 7 kilometres north of Hasle. The formations are the result of the waves beating against the rock at a time when the sea level was considerably higher than it is today. The cliff is 135 feet in height. Named after a hermit who resided on the bluff, Jon's caves are visible from the beach below the rocks. ()
