There are many places in our homeland that are not well known, but are interesting nonetheless.
Žernava is a quarry north of Přerov. Limestone was quarried there from the 16th century until the mid-20th century. Allegedly, the quarry included a large stalactite cave, which, however, was lost during mining. Nowadays the quarry is inactive, closed, with a ban on entry, but no one enforces it. The rocks look very picturesque, almost western.
V naší vlasti je mnoho míst, která nejsou obecně známá, ale přesto jsou zajímavá.
Žernava je lom severně od Přerova. Kámen - vápenec - se v něm lámal snad od 16. století až do poloviny století dvacátého. Údajně byla součástí lomu i rozlehlá krápníková jeskyně, která však při těžbě vzala za své. V současnosti je lom nečinný, uzavřený, se zákazem vstupu, který však nikdo nevymáhá. Skály vypadají velmi malebně, skoro až westernově.
At the top of the quarry there is a cyclocross track. However, I was more interested in the spring scenery with flowering trees.
V horní části lomu je bikrosová dráha. Mně však spíš zaujala jarní scenérie s kvetoucími stromy.
The hill above the quarry is called School Hill. It really is a school hill - the land belongs to the local primary school and is actually used for teaching - whether it is for teaching history or science or music.
Kopec nad lomem se jmenuje Školní kopec. On je to totiž opravdu školní kopec - pozemek patří místní základní škole a skutečně se používá při výuce - ať už při výuce vlastivědy nebo přírodovědy nebo třeba hudební výchovy.
