One of those many sandstone quarries that can be found in the Gartetal and its side valleys. Little is known that the sandstone layer in the area around Göttingen forms the third largest German sandstone area after the Elbe sandstone and the Palatinate Forest. To the east, the visible sandstone layer ends in the Gartetal at the Negenborn spring.
