Talking Stones at the Rhine Museum: A Journey into the Devon Sea

With the special exhibition Talking Stones – The Devon Sea, the Rhine Museum Koblenz opens a fascinating window into a prehistoric era that is hardly imaginable today. Fossils, geological traces, and large-format photographs take visitors deep into a world from around 400 million years ago.

When Stones Tell Stories

The focus is on new and partially unique fossil finds from the Paleontological Working Group Koblenz as well as photographs by Klaus Hammerl. This creates a lively event experience that bridges natural history, regional history, and vivid communication.
