At the beginning of the 1950s during the Cold War, four tunnels were excavated under the Babická plateau in the Křtinské údolí on the left (southern) slope in the area between Švýcárná and the Vaječník groove. Their purpose was to be used for war production in the event of a conflict. It is likely to be linked to arms production in the nearby Adamovské strojírny. After the emigration of the chief engineer and the disclosure of the plans in the Swiss press, it was decided to end the digging of tunnels and to wall up the buildings. Since then, the abandoned tunnels have been crawled by dozens of curious cavers and tourists. In recent years, an expert geological survey was carried out in the tunnels. The tunnels were excavated on the slopes of the Jelenec hill: tunnels I and II on the east and tunnels III and IV on the north. slope. The underground spaces of the tunnels near the entrances are inhabited by a community of invertebrates that are partly adapted to life in the dark and damp. Around tunnels III and IV. Josefovská údolí educational trail leads. Tunnel No. I is located near the Kostelík cave. It is approx. 150 m long and slopes slightly towards the SW. Just before the end of the tunnel, there is a cave-in behind which approximately half of the tunnel is permanently flooded. Also before the cave-in there is water from about halfway up to waist height. Only exceptionally is the bottom dry and it is possible to collapse.

The original name from the year of establishment in 1938 was U školky, because the location of the well was near the forest nursery in the Olomučany forest at the intersection of Hradská and Doubská roads. The depiction of the cuckoo was installed later, in 1966, by Emanuel Koupý, who made it based on a drawing by Stanislav Lolek. The spring dries up in the summer.

Býčí skála together with Rudický propadání forms the second longest cave system in the Czech Republic. The total length of the whole system exceeds 15 km. The entrance to the cave is located in the valley of the Křtinský brook. The cave has been used since ancient times. Remains of a settlement from the Paleolithic period were found here. From the Iron Age, many objects were found here, as well as the Hallstatt burial ground with more than 40 skeletons.

The lookout tower, built in 1886-87, was named after Alexander Suchánek, who was responsible for its creation. It lost its original romantic appearance during World War II, when it was almost destroyed for strategic reasons. Its salvation became an advantageous position enabling the transmission of a television signal - in 1963 the torso of the tower was reconstructed into a transmitter with a freely accessible gallery. In 2008-09 it was reconstructed again, increased to 16.5 meters and the surrounding trees were cut down. From the new Alexandrovka there is a view of the surrounding villages, the hills of the Drahanská Highlands, Pálava and, with excellent visibility, the Alps. Free entry

The well was built in 1937. The image of the deer that gave it its name was created by K. Wagner.

The older name of the well - U Kalicha - comes from the 1960s, when the old dilapidated well was renovated by Emanuel Skoupý. At that time, he placed a stone wall with a chalice and the inscription U Kalicha above it. The current name was given to the well in 2005, when the collapsed wall was replaced by a new one, complete with a marble slab with a picture of a pheasant.
