Siegburger Museumsgespräch - Krokodile unter Palmen - Das Tertiär in der Niederrheinischen Bucht

In the organizer's words:

For around 300 years, lignite has been mined in the Rhineland for a wide variety of purposes. While the large open-cast mines between Cologne and Aachen are spectacular, landscape-changing outcrops, the numerous coal mines on the northern slopes of the Siebengebirge have been history for almost 100 years. What remains are numerous fossils that provide a detailed history of the tertiary flora and fauna.

Speaker: Dr. Georg Heumann, collection manager of the Goldfuß Museum at the University of Bonn
