Intro
The sandstone museum provides information about the formation and quarrying of sandstone in Staffelbach. Fossil finds and the professional restoration of sandstone are the focus of the annual exhibition.
The Staffelbach sandstone was formed millions of years ago as a sedimentary rock. For centuries, the sandstone quarries supplied the building material for houses, public buildings and churches, mainly in the Suhrental valley. The museum presents the history of Staffelbach sandstone quarrying and the production and trade of stove slabs. The top floor is dedicated to the numerous shark and ray teeth. www.sandsteinmuseum.ch
The sandstone museum is open on Museum Day May 17, 2026 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
We will show how sandstone can be professionally restored. Fossil shark teeth can be searched for in the Staffelbach coarse sandstone in the museum garden.
