The hill near Tekovsk\u00e1 Breznica is covered with red clay, loess and granules, which prove its volcanic origin. At its top you can clearly distinguish contours of the former crater. Climbing to the top, there is a 26-metre-long volcanic vent - \"Sesame Cave\" - through which volcanic gases are expelled during the explosion. You will also find red volcanic stones around the cave, which are porous and very light. During the eruption, the volcano expelled out black porous stones. These stones, in a variety of shapes, flew to a maximum height of 500 metres. Samples of these volcanic bombs, as they are known, can be seen in the <a href=\"https:\/\/pohronskemuzeum.sk\/\">Pohronsk\u00e9 Museum<\/a> in the town of Nov\u00e1 Ba\u0148a. The Putikov v\u0155\u0161ok volcano was declared a natural monument in 1996, with the level 5 protection.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/regiongron.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Putikov-vrsok-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15961\" srcset=\"https:\/\/regiongron.sk\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Putikov-vrsok-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/regiongron.sk\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Putikov-vrsok-450x600.jpg 450w, https:\/\/regiongron.sk\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Putikov-vrsok-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/regiongron.sk\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Putikov-vrsok-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/regiongron.sk\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Putikov-vrsok-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border:none\" src=\"https:\/\/sk.frame.mapy.cz\/s\/cesolupana\" width=\"100%\" height=\"350\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Putikov v\u0155\u0161ok volcano (432 m above sea level), the youngest volcano in Central Europe, was last active more than 102,000 years ago.
