Summary

Description
English: The Shell Grotto is an ornate subterranean passageway in Margate, Kent, UK. Almost all the surface area of the walls and roof is covered in mosaics created entirely of seashells, totalling about 2,000 square feet (190 m2) of mosaic, or 4.6 million shells. It was discovered in 1835 but its age remains unknown. The grotto is a Grade I listed building and is open to the public.
Magyar: A Shell Grotto (szó szerint Kagyló Barlang), a kenti Margate-ben lévő, kagylókkal díszített, földalatti járat. Elkészítéséhez 4,6 millió kagylóhéjat használtak fel.
