Holzmaden Advice

I will soon be visiting Holzmaden in Germany. Does anyone have any advice on how to find fossils there? (Which quarry to go to, where to look for fossils inside off the quarry, etc.)

Yeah the quarry Kromer is the only quarry there where you can find something good. But at the moment its very difficult to find marine reptile stuff so I wouldnt expect to find something like that. You can still find belemnites, ammonites and bivalves.

Many greetings from Germany ! Have a great time with many fossils :)

Can you leave Germany with fossils? Any restrictions? Do they provide documentation at the quarry? Just asking so Thecosmilia Trichitoma doesn't get surprised.

Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them!
