U Strejčkova lomu, Natural monument in Krčmaň, Czech Republic.

U Strejčkova lomu is a natural monument near Krčmaň in the Olomouc District, protecting the plant community of a grassy steppe around a former limestone quarry. The site shelters the large-flowered pasqueflower (Pulsatilla grandis), a European important species, along with Carthusian pink, field eryngo, and three-toothed orchid.

The site was declared a protected area by decree of the Ministry of Education, Sciences and Arts no. 37.012/52-V-VII/5, issued in 1952; the Slovak Wikipedia links to scans of that decree. It lies near the village of Krčmaň in the Olomouc District and is now registered as natural monument no. 469, managed by the Agency for Nature Conservation and Landscape Protection of the Czech Republic.

The name refers to the nearby Strejček quarry, whose former limestone working left the dry grassland the monument now protects. Visitors can look for the large-flowered pasqueflower (Pulsatilla grandis), the species the reserve was declared for, along with Carthusian pink and field eryngo.

Access is available but paths can be uneven, so wear sturdy footwear. The best time to visit is during the growing season when flowering plants are visible and conditions are easiest for exploration.

The protected area was established by a 1952 decree of the Ministry of Education, Sciences and Arts, numbered 37.012/52-V-VII/5. The limestone quarry that preceded it left open steppe ground where the large-flowered pasqueflower (Pulsatilla grandis) now grows, a species of European importance.
