Abandoned paragneiss quarry (biotite gneiss and banded gneiss), on the east side of the Dzierżoniów (Germ. Reichenbach) - Świdnica (Germ.Schweidnitz) road. Also amphibolite insert with garnets (in the north-west side of the quarry, today unfortunately not exposed). Overgrowth and partially turned to landfill.
Ruins of a defensive tower from the Middle Ages, probably built on the site of a former Slavic pagan temple.
