Býčí skála Cave, Cave and archaeological site in Habrůvka, Czech Republic

The Býčí skála cave system extends over 17 kilometers through limestone formations, making it the second longest underground network in the Czech Republic.

Archaeological excavations in 1872 revealed Hallstatt period artifacts, including bronze objects, iron tools, human remains, and a notable bronze bull figurine.

The cave holds evidence of Upper Paleolithic settlements where early inhabitants hunted large game animals and left behind traces of their daily activities.

The cave opens to visitors during weekends in May, offering guided tours through the entrance section leading to the Great Hall of New Býčí skála.

During World War II, the cave entrance received concrete reinforcement for a planned aircraft engine factory, though manufacturing never commenced.
