If you look around at the station, you can see that we are in an old quarry court.
We're asking you not to get closer to the wall. Crossing the barrier is an accident.
Mining has made visible the inside of the mountain, which is like a geologist
we would open a book, in which millions of years ago, here waving seas, floods
history is described. Let's read the story of the rising wall before us!
The lynx was 30-31 million years ago in the olagyocene age
sandstone. This rocks can be found in several places in the Buda hills, for example
On Great Hag Mountain, from where he got his name. The mountain behind it is much older than 220,
It is comprised of 225 million years old Triassic dolomite. The dolomite mountain rose from the sea once
out of the distant volcanoes from the water flowing from the shore could be transported here by the hornhead
sandstone and pebbles. Let's look at the layers of the mines
from the bottom up!
