A Journey Through Time into the Devon Sea in the Heart of Koblenz

With Talking Stones – The Devon Sea, the Rhine Museum Koblenz opens a fascinating window into a world from around 400 million years ago. The special exhibition combines fossils, geology, and impressive photographs into an exhibition experience that uniquely brings together knowledge and wonder.

When Stones Tell Stories

At the center is the shallow Devon Sea, which once covered the area of today's Rhine Valley. Fossilized organisms, new fossil finds, and large-format images by Klaus Hammerl make it visible how alive the past has remained beneath our feet. The exhibition takes visitors on a vivid journey through earth history, natural history, and regional research.

Exciting for Families, Explorers, and School Classes

Especially for children and teenagers, the exhibition provides a strong access to natural science and museum education. The presentation is designed so that younger guests can quickly grasp the connections and discover many details during the shared tour. This creates a calm, educational, and surprising destination for families in Koblenz-Ehrenbreitstein.

The Rhine Museum as a Strong Framework

The Rhine Museum Koblenz is one of the traditional cultural locations in the city and combines special exhibitions with a broad collection around life on the Rhine. Its location beneath the Ehrenbreitstein Fortress, the historic atmosphere of the house, and the clear thematic focus provide a special visiting experience. Those looking to connect regional history, geology, and museum visits will find a suitable framework here.
