The "Kranbuche" geological outcrop awaits you while hiking in Züschen. Here you can travel back in time to the Lower Devonian - around 390 million years into the past.

This geological natural monument is home to the famous "Kranbuche horizon", a layer of ancient spheroidal shale. With a little luck and a keen eye, you will discover fossilized witnesses of a long-gone ocean: from delicate crinoids and corals to prehistoric trilobites and arthropods.

Would you like to admire the most beautiful finds up close? Then visit the historic Borgs Scheune museum of local history right in the charming village center of Züschen. Experience the fascinating geology of the Rothaargebirge up close!
