Europe's only chalk museum is located in a historic chalk factory from the time of traditional chalk quarrying on Rügen. With modern, interactive exhibits, the museum provides information about the Rügen chalk and its fossils.

Lovingly designed museum with an extensive collection of fossils, geological explanations and clear descriptions of chalk extraction and processing with a film in a small cinema. The short ascent to the chalk cliffs is definitely worthwhile. My tip: Definitely go there!
