    On the lower slope is the "Heyneberg" limestone quarry with a rock face up to 12 m high
    old, small, south-facing quarry with excavation for lime extraction, south-east of Heyneberg. Height of the slate rock walls alternated with calcareous and quartzitic greywacke, max. 15 m.

      Here is an interesting geological outcrop of the Nossen-Wilsdruffer Slate Mountains. The quarrying of limestone has resulted in a cave that can be entered while observing nature conservation.

        Here, too, the information boards on the geological trail provide interesting information about the geological features.
