| Description | Important Palaeolitic sites in Přerov-Předmostí were situated around two conspicuous Devonian limestone hills called Skalka and Hradisko. Skalka was unfortunately quarried for limestone and in the second half of 19th century there was a depression instead hill there. In 1971, a memorial plaque was placed on the limestone wall. When a new housing estate made of prefab blocks of flats was built around the relict of Skalka, the memorial plaque has been lost and the surroundings of rocky outcrop was totally changed. In recent time, the new plaque with partly different text can be seen on the limestone block. |
