Švédův stůl Cave, Prehistoric cave in Moravian Karst, Czech Republic

Located in the Říčka Valley, this through cave contains two entrances within a limestone rock formation in the Moravian Karst Protected Area.

Archaeological excavations in 1905 revealed a human mandible and Mousterian artifacts, confirming Neanderthal presence dating back 100,000 years in this region.

The cave holds extensive layers of prehistoric occupation, from Magdalenian to Aurignacian periods, with evidence of both human habitation and animal activity.

Research teams continue their investigations at the site, documenting new findings about ancient human populations and environmental conditions through systematic excavations.

The cave preserved numerous animal remains, including cave bears, horses, rhinoceroses, and mammoths, indicating a cold climate ecosystem during prehistoric times.
