A journey back in time to the ancient Devon Sea in the middle of Koblenz
At the Rhine Museum Koblenz, Speaking Stones – The Devon Sea is an exhibition that brings natural history to life. The show takes you deep into a world where, around 400 million years ago, a shallow sea lay where the Rhine now flows through the valley. Fossils, marine deposits, and photographs provide an intense event experience between science, wonder, and regional history.
Fossils, Slate, and the Traces of a Distant World
The exhibition showcases new and partly unique fossil finds that make life in the Devon Sea tangible. The presentation is complemented by photographs by Klaus Hammerl, which depict slate and rock as silent archivists of Earth’s history. This creates an impressive event atmosphere that connects knowledge and sensory experiences.
50 Years of Paleontological Passion
The exhibition is organized by the Paleontological Working Group Koblenz, which connects this presentation to an earlier special exhibition from 2009. The anniversary adds depth and authority to the show. Those interested in geology, paleontology, and the development of the Rhineland will find a professionally solid yet accessible presentation with strong educational value.
Ideal for Families, Explorers, and Museum Guests
As a bad weather option in the museum, the exhibition is suitable for families as well as adults interested in natural history and regional history. The Rhine Museum Koblenz is a cultural historical place with long-term experience in event planning and always offers new perspectives on the Rhine and its past with its changing special exhibitions.
Visit with Added Value at the Rhine Museum
The exhibition can be seen at the Rhine Museum Koblenz in Ehrenbreitstein. The museum is largely accessible and provides a comfortable visitor experience for various target groups. On-site, knowledge transfer, exhibition concepts, and regional identity come together.
Conclusion: Speaking Stones – The Devon Sea makes Earth history approachable and surprisingly relevant. Anyone wishing to experience rare fossils, striking images, and a well-founded exhibition in an authentic museum environment should not miss this event in Koblenz.
