The former quarry has now become an important biotope. A pair of eagle owls nests here. The quarry used to be open and you could find fossils and interesting minerals. Now the old quarry is no longer accessible. The quarry, which is still being dismantled, is open for guided tours at certain times.

Quarry in the flat country! 🚧 Rocks from the shell limestone come to the surface of the day through tectonics. A paradise for fossil collectors ⛏ ... and for theater lovers 🎭. Performances take place here once a year 👍👍 steengroevetheater.nl
