The Moravian Karst House of Nature

The Moravian Karst Protected Landscape Area is a remarkable world of white Devonian limestone which has been eroded over millions of years by rain and water from rivers and brooks to form thousands of caves with huge domes with rich dripstone decoration, mysterious brooks which disappear in the underground, shaded karst canyons and sunlit plains dominated by Macocha, the queen of abysses. Welcome to the land whose soil is full of ancient bones and shards as evidence of the life of ancient animals and people, where until recently iron was smelted and the sound of hammering rang through the valleys.
