The wife of Austria cellar rapist Josef Fritzl has visited the underground dungeon where her daughter was held captive for 24 years for the first time.

Rosemarie Fritzl returned to the family home and reportedly collected toys and other belongings from the underground rooms.

Fritzl's wife has told police she knew nothing of the horror occurring under the house in Amstetten, Austria.

Her husband fathered seven children with their daughter, Elisabeth, who he said had run away and joined a cult.

Three of the children lived upstairs as the Fritzl's "grandchildren" after Fritzl told his wife they had been abandoned on their doorstep by their supposedly missing daughter.

Three others remained locked up with their mother in the cellar and another child died soon after birth.

The children, along with their mother and grandmother, are being cared for by psychiatrists at a nearby medical facility.

Reports say Rosemarie spent about an hour at the house and loaded up a vehicle with several suitcases before returning to the clinic.

Rosemarie has said she never wants to live in the "tainted" house again, according to reports.

Last week, the eldest child Kerstin, 19, awoke from a coma and doctors said she was recovering well.

Her admittance to hospital on April 19 brought the horrific saga to light.

Thanks for the news.

I don't understand how anyone could be so cruel and sadistic... He should be made to live as he made his daughter live.

I feel bad for his wife, but a small part of me thinks she is really dumb to have not suspected something, when 3 of her grandkids appeared from nowhere on their doorstep...
