This contribution provides a representative overview of several major geologic localities of the Czech part of the Sudetic (Lusatian) region. It contains examples of localities of Europe-wide importance from the Sudetic crystalline complexes, Palaeozoic (Silurian, Devonian, Carboniferous) fossil-bearing deposits as well as Jurassic and Cretaceous platform sediments. These localities are already protected by the Czech Government as national nature reserves, national monuments, or their protected status is in preparation.
