Extinct staircase in the Krč Forest, Abandoned staircase in Krč Forest, Czech Republic
This extinct staircase is a stone structure located within the Krč Forest near Kunratice, standing isolated without connection to any building or larger structure. The stairs sit close to a small stream valley and can be accessed via marked forest paths in the recreational area.
The structure appears to be a remnant from earlier human settlement and construction efforts in the Kunratice area. Its exact age and original purpose remain unclear, making it a mysterious trace of past activity in this forested region.
This solitary structure has become a curiosity for visitors and locals alike, who wonder about its purpose and origins. The staircase feeds into a wider fascination with unexplained stone remnants found scattered throughout European forests.
The staircase is best found using a local trail map or GPS coordinates, as it sits deep within the forest away from main paths. Sturdy footwear is advisable since forest trails can be uneven and muddy depending on the season.
The stairs lead nowhere and stand completely isolated among the trees, with no one knowing where they originally led or why they were built. This baffling incompleteness draws the curiosity of everyone who discovers it.
