An old quarry operating in the interwar period.
For several years, a new larger quarry has been operating in this area, which practically completely absorbed the old one.
The old quarry "Skałka" served the local residents for several decades as an ideal holiday destination. It was partly flooded with water (bathing part) and also had interesting camping sites and several meters of rock exposure.
