The history of the quarry operations in Dossenheim goes back to the year 1760. With the increasing demand for suitable road construction material, the mining of the Dossenheim deposits became economically interesting. The two large fractures on the Sporenberg and on the Hohen Nistler have shaped the appearance of the community.
