A journey through time to the Devon Sea at the Rhine Museum Koblenz
At the Rhine Museum Koblenz, Talking Stones – The Devon Sea opens a fascinating view into a world 400 million years ago. The special exhibition connects paleontology, museum education, and impressive photography to create an educational event experience for families, children, and everyone interested in fossils, earth history, and the secrets of the Middle Rhine.
Fossils, slate, and traces of an ancient sea
The exhibition takes you right into the Devon Sea, which once shaped today's Rhine Valley. Fossilized shells, corals, sea lilies, and other organisms make visible how rich the region was in life back then. The presentation is complemented by photographs by Klaus Hammerl, showcasing slate formations and natural details in strong imagery. This creates a calm, focused atmosphere where the exhibition content unfolds its effect step by step.
A museum visit with added value for big and small explorers
The Rhine Museum Koblenz combines cultural-historical content with regional earth history, thereby offering a strong target group appeal for children, families, school classes, and curious culture fans. Those who visit the exhibition not only experience exhibits but also a carefully curated interplay of information, visualization, and exploratory joy. The visit is ideal for a quiet afternoon with educational character and high experience value.
