Of course, there are no volcanoes in Poland but there is several visible evidence left to their presence. We will find them in the southern part of Poland in the lower parts of the mountains. Volcanoes in Poland appeared many times and the first of them were a kind of submarine volcanoes with a crevice structure, as evidenced by the residues of pillow lava in the Sudetes. It is difficult to imagine that where there are now the mountains in Poland there were once extensive water reservoirs. Scientists suggest that it was a spacious sea and even the ocean. It is a period from 500-300 million years ago (Paleozoik) and the surface of the planet Earth from this period is unimaginable to us.

Later volcanoes already had a different structure, they were land about a circular and conical construction. These are late paleozoik volcanoes. Inflorescence in several places called unveiling shows interesting forms of cracked magma basalts and riolites.

The best -preserved conical volcano, or rather what remains of it, i.e. the frozen lava itself is 150 meters high and you can enter it. It’s Ostrzyca. The disc cone is entirely covered with forest.

However, there is a great opportunity to look inside the volcano will sell 20 million years and see his lava chimney, core. This takes place in the old quarry “Basalt Mine Wilcza Gora”. Lawa została usunięta pozostawiono tylko komin skąd siewydobywała. Rdzeń jest już w stanie silnej erozj i po osunięciu. Probably soon the chimney remained after the volcano will fall into full breakdown, so it is worth hurrying to see this miracle of nature from 20 million years ago. (Brux)
