The place where the Lemonade Joe was filmed, but also the former destination station of inconvenient political prisoners. All these are limestone quarries Great and Little America. Come and discover the beauties of the Bohemian Karst, Karlštejn and its surroundings.
Great America - Czech Grand Canyon is a limestone, about 800 m long, 200 m wide, up to 100 m deep, flooded quarry . On its bottom there are two interconnected ponds with clear water, which especially attract in the summer to swim. Unfortunately, the gate to the quarry is permanently closed, and so, despite a strict ban, many people climb the rocks to the bottom of Great America, which is quite dangerous and can not be recommended. You can safely view the view from the viewpoint directly at the parking lot or from the footpaths around Great America.
The site is sought after by film companies . There were scenes in the films Lemonade Joe and Accumulator. It is located near the road leading from the village of Mořina (direction from Karlštejn) to Kozolupy (in the direction of Loděnice - Prague).
Small America is the second, slightly smaller, limestone quarry. Also, this quarry is flooded with crystal clear water. Both quarries are connected with the nearby ones by underground tunnels , which are, however, inaccessible to the general public. At the information center building in Karlstejn you will find the Small Fortress Museum of the Czechoslovakia. Fortifications from 1937 . You can refresh yourself in the stylish café and sit in the garden. We can arrange accommodation, including free parking.
Although there is a permanently forbidden entrance to the quarries of Little America, Mexico and the Great America of the "Czech Grand Canyon" near the village of Mořina, the old quarries, their flooded bottoms and labyrinths of underground galleries attract tramps, cavemen, divers, bathing lovers and a whole host of adventurers.
The area around the quarries in America is literally crammed with legends and legends. The most well-known story tells of a horrifying ghost in the German SS uniform named Hans Hagen , which suddenly emerges from the galleries, again disappears without a trace, and has a number of mysterious deaths or disappearances. The device through which Hagena can be called is located in an underground mining exhibition in an old mine mine in Solvay's Quarries.
