Skulpturenweg

Trail Obernkirchen, Lower-Saxony, Germany

What to expect

The Skulpturenweg in Obernkirchen, Lower Saxony, Germany, is a place where sculptors work on sandstone. The Obernkirchen sandstone is a naturally occurring sandstone formation composed of nearly pure quartz material, displaying a range of warm tones from pale yellow to deep red. The stone has been quarried since the 11th century and is highly valued for its durability and resistance to weathering. It contains dinosaur tracks and fossils from the Early Cretaceous period, making it a significant site for paleontological research
