Paleospace Normandy France

Recommended Posts

I've spent 4 days with my girlfriend hunting for fossils in Normandy and northern France for Christmas, we were bound to the tides for access to the fossiliferous beaches, so the Sunday morning during high tide we made a visit to the local museum in Villers sur Mer.

 

I was surprised at the quality of this museum and the effort given for the local fossil fauna, especially the invertebrates, I can recommend this museum to anyone visiting that area.

 

Enjoy the pictures:

Opalised fossils are the best: a wonderful mix between paleontology and mineralogy!

 

Q. Where do dinosaurs study?

A. At Khaan Academy!...
