Štola svatého Vojtěcha, Historical adit in Ptice, Czech Republic.

The Saint Adalbert Adit extends horizontally into the hillside of Karabinsky Hill, featuring a water-filled entrance section and multiple underground passages.

Dating from the 19th century, the Prague Iron Company operated this mine for iron ore extraction, connecting it to the broader Chrustenice mining system.

The mine entrance structure reflects traditional Central European mining architecture, demonstrating the methods used for mineral extraction in the region.

Visitors need rubber boots and lighting equipment to explore the mine, as the entrance section contains water up to 30 centimeters deep.

Between November and May, the mine functions as a winter shelter for Greater Mouse-eared Bats, making it an ecological preservation site.
