Talking Stones in Koblenz: A Journey Through Time into the Devon Sea

At the Rhine Museum Koblenz, the exhibition Talking Stones – The Devon Sea opens a window back into the Earth's history. Fossils, rock layers, and new discoveries reveal what today's Rhine Valley looked like around 400 million years ago.

Fascinating fossils from a sunken world

The special exhibition combines scientific precision with a vivid presentation. Visitors discover traces of shells, corals, crinoids, arthropods, and armored fish that once lived in the shallow Devon Sea. This is complemented by photographs from Klaus Hammerl, which impressively highlight the character of the stones and artifacts.

A special anniversary with local history

The exhibition builds on the work of the Paleontological Working Group Koblenz, which has been researching and documenting fossil evidence from the region for many years. This creates not only an exhibition but also an illustrative event experience bridging local history, natural science, and modern museum education. Especially for families, school classes, and curious museum fans, the format offers an ideal access point to paleontology.

Atmosphere for the inquisitive and discoverers

The Rhine Museum provides the perfect setting: historically cultural, clearly structured, and closely connected to the themes of the Rhine, shipping, and geology. Those interested in Earth history, fossils, and the connection between science and illustrative communication will experience a calm, educational, and surprisingly intense exhibition feeling here.

Conclusion: An excursion that shows the Rhine in a new light

Talking Stones – The Devon Sea makes the distant past of the region tangible and invites visitors to take an exciting look beneath the surface. Those who appreciate fossils, natural history, and a well-curated special exhibition should plan this visit in Koblenz and experience the exhibition live.
