On Sunday, November 1, 2026, the LWL Museum of Natural History in Münster invites you to participate in “The Big Sludge”. From 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM, visitors can search for fossils and gain practical insight into paleontology.
The family program combines joint exploration with exciting insights into the work surrounding fossil finds. In the search through the sludge material, it is about looking closely and recognizing possible fossils. This makes engaging with Earth's history an active experience for the whole family.
Search for Fossils and Learn About Preparation
Another component of the event is getting to know paleontological preparation. Visitors will gain an impression of how fossils are processed and prepared for scientific study or presentation. The participatory action offers not only a search for special finds but also provides direct access to paleontological working methods.
The program is designed as a family offer and is suitable for anyone who wants to experience natural history, fossils, and the history of life on Earth in an illustrative way. Instead of just looking at the exhibits, participants can become active themselves and discover the fascination of fossil remains.
