Burgermeister Mueller Museum - Solnhofen

Recommended Posts

The couple days we spent collecting Solnhofen culminated in a visit to the Burgermeister Mueller Museum. Dr. Martin Roeper, right, is Direktor of the museum and Wolfgang Mages, left, works with the museum and was our collecting guide. Both guys are standing in front of the impressive fish mortality slab found by Dr. Roeper and displayed in the museum. The second image shows a rare Rhabdocidaris echinoid with articulated spines shown to us behind the scenes before prep. This is a spectacular recent find found in one of the quarries we were fortunate to hunt. Thanks again Nando for the networking connection.

Very cool, they have a hash plate of fish like that at the FB National Monument too- pretty cool!

Fossils are simply one of the coolest things on earth--discovering them is just marvelous! Makes you all giddy inside!

Thanks Indy, sadly the Ajax translator module webmaster stopped his support :( , so I now have a smug translator waiting for something better for my website.
