Loreta

The natural monument Loreta was recognized on 2 December 1984 by a decree of the District National Committee in order to protect the former limestone mine – a unique locality of geological, speleological and zoological value, as well as an important mining and historical monument. Plant associations are not the focus of protection here. The crystalline limestone mine, which has 1.100 meter long tunnels on three levels, is currently the biggest winter site for bats in Western Bohemia.
