The Fascinating Messel Pit: A journey into the Tertiary (47 Ma ago)
The Messel pit, a tad South of Frankfurt, Germany is the first location in Germany on the UNESCO Cultural Heritage list. Faszination Welterbe Grube Messel retraces the route through the modern and architectonically novel Messel visitor center, at the margin of the pit. Profusely illustrated, Faszination Welterbe Grube Messel explains the evolutionary significance of the unique fossil remains recovered from the Messel sediments.
