Hiking

In 1969, the Rheinisch-Westfälische Kalkwerke Dornap commissioned the Mettmanner painter and graphic artist Jan Peter Lichtenford with the construction of a memorial, which found its place in a small green area on the Düsseler Höhe in Dornap. Around 1968/69 a new development area was created, which was intended primarily for the employees of the lime works. The monument consists of three approximately 2m high and 1.50m wide stones made of shell limestone, which are grouped at right angles around a fluorescent tube. They carry six bronze plaques with reliefs of fossils found in limestone.
