A cleverly disguised geocache in Czechia sets the stage for an unforgettable outing and the chance to earn a new smiley. Discover the secrets of Ondrstroj (GC6030Y), our Geocache of the Week.

Ondřejovická Machine Shop (Ondrstroj) was founded in 1899 as Hassmann and Son, initially producing stonemasonry machines. Over time, the company added woodworking machines, distillery equipment, hydroelectric turbines, mining machinery, chemical-industry equipment, and pressure vessels as its ownership and structure changed.

The geocache rests outside the company fence. The cache owner, BajkerPatejl, reminds you not to climb the fence.

Identify two matching items and determine the best location for a geocache. One item differs—it contains the geocache. No tools or strength are needed; geocachers can open the cache with one hand by looking carefully and thinking first.
