Rösslerov lom, Natural monument in Bratislava III, Slovakia.
Rösslerov lom is a quarry in Bratislava III that displays granite formations from the crystalline core of the Small Carpathians. The approximately 2.4 hectare site reveals the geological structure of this mountain range through its exposed rock faces.
The quarry was placed under protection in 1990, securing this section of the mountain range for scientific study. This designation marked the start of systematic preservation efforts for the site's geological features.
The site functions as an educational resource for geology students and researchers who study the Western Carpathians rock formations and regional geological processes.
The site can be explored from two viewpoints that offer good views of the rock formations. Visitors should follow protection rules to avoid damaging the natural structures.
The site contains a military bunker hidden among the rock formations, connecting war history with nature. This combination of military infrastructure and geological features makes the place unexpectedly interesting.
