Marble from Ruhpolding? Yes, "Ruhpolding Marble" was actually mined in this quarry. Of course, this is not real marble. The rock owes its name to its structure and ease of processing. And it does look a bit like marble, doesn't it?

You've probably already seen the marble. The reddish stone was used in numerous buildings around Ruhpolding. Today you can learn interesting facts about the rock in the disused quarry. Or watch climbers climbing the steep walls.
