Pražský zlom, Natural monument in Hloubětín, Czech Republic
The geological formation contains exposed quartz rocks and bluestone layers, representing a significant break in the Earth's crust with northeast-southwest orientation.
The Prague Fault formed during the Ordovician and Silurian periods, creating a vertical displacement reaching 1700 meters at its maximum point in Žižkov.
The geological site serves as an educational resource for scientists and students studying rock formations and tectonic processes in Central Europe.
The protected area spans 0.31 hectares and maintains specific coordinates at 50°6'10.08"N latitude and 14°31'59.88"E longitude for precise location identification.
During the construction of tunnels under Vítkov hill between 2005-2006, workers encountered this fault line, providing additional geological research opportunities.
