Staringgroeve: geology by appointment

The Staringmonument in Losser refers here to the Staringgroeve (Staring Quarry). A visit centres on geology and fossils, but is only possible under guidance and by appointment.

Plan your visit ↗

Seeing the site outdoors

A quarry offers a different introduction to rock than a display case. The guided tour can connect the visible layers and finds with the explanation of this location.

Guidance is part of it

The visitor information mentions a code of conduct and guided access. Follow the organiser's arrangements; do not expect a site where you can wander or collect on your own.

Prepared for the outdoors

The condition of the quarry can change, and water is a factor to reckon with. Ask about suitable footwear, current conditions and the practical options for your group.

Before you go

Have the exact meeting point confirmed. The contact address of the Geologiemuseum is not automatically the starting point of the excursion.
