New Members Fabian Posted Thursday at 07:30 AM New Members Share Posted Thursday at 07:30 AM Hey, A friend of mine dreamed to become a paleontologist during his childhood, but has chosen to become a doctor. I would like to organize a weekend to discover a European paleontology site, where should I go ? Best, Fabian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FranzBernhard Posted Thursday at 08:49 AM Share Posted Thursday at 08:49 AM What are his interests? Especially, is he more interested in looking on fossiliferous outcrops or more interested in digging (but not seeing so much at first sight)?

Europe is big..., possible to visit sites in Spain, France, Belgium, Germany, Poland, Austria, Switzerland, Italy... Better to decide first what you would like to visit (Dinosaurs?) and where 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezio Bonsignore Posted Thursday at 03:58 PM Share Posted Thursday at 03:58 PM The tone of the question suggests that you and your friend are completely new to that, at least in Europe. I must thus unfortunately warn you that searching/digging for fossils "on the free" this side of the pond might very well land you in serious troubles with the landowners or/and the authorities. Such activities by private citizens are nearly always stricly regulated when not completely prohibited. F. Bernhard can give you all details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpc Posted Thursday at 04:33 PM Share Posted Thursday at 04:33 PM HI Fabian.. I have to also ask the question.... are you looking for a place to see great specimens (a museum) or to collect your own fossils with your friend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
