In northern Germany, red soils are the exception. In the field north of Rosengartenstrasse there is a strip of red, tertiary clay marl several hundred meters long. It's a relic of the Ice Age. On their way south, the glaciers swept away everything that was not riveted and nailed down, including this large clod of earth from pre-glacial, approx. 5 to 20 million year old deposits, which were then deposited here. What a force the glaciers are. The geologist's heart is delighted. The appearance is best seen in freshly plowed fields in spring.
