The station was built in 1994 as part of the GEOFON project. It is operated in cooperation with the Institute of Physics of the Czech Republic, GFZ Potsdam and ZAMG Vienna. The STS2 broadband seismometer is located in a 6 m deep shaft.
The station was extended in 2012 with short-period instrumentation (seismometer SS-1 with natural frequency 1Hz). The short periodic seismic station MORC is designed for observation of local seismicity in the area of Nízký Jeseník and is part of the MONET seismological observation network (FDSN code M1).
