While baking, the cake expands. This is due to the moisture in the batter heating up, and turning into steam. The steam expands and tries to rise. This causes the cake to puff up and rise, too. When the cake cools, or the steam escapes, the cake will fall as there is nothing to push it and expand it anymore.

Some delicate cakes are very sensitive to temperature changes, so if your oven does not hold a steady temperature throughout the entire baking time, the cake might fall. Another possible cause is incomplete baking. A cake may appear to be completely cooked while still being raw underneath the crust. If removed from the oven at this point, the cake will fall. That is why it is important to "test" the cake by piercing it with a toothpick or straw to be certain that it is done all the way through.
