What is Faxe Limestone Quarry?

A historic natural attraction

Faxe Limestone Quarry is Europe's largest limestone quarry - a 63-hectare natural wonder filled with geological history. 63 million years ago the area was under a tropical sea and today you can still find fossils of the animals that lived there. It's a fascinating meeting of nature and culture, where the seabed of the past is exposed and every step tells a part of Denmark's geological development. It's a place where both children and adults can explore the traces of nature and feel the wings of history.

Geomuseum Faxe - the seabed of the past up close

Geomuseum Faxe is located directly by the limestone quarry and offers an exciting insight into the area's geological past. Here you can experience fossils, exhibitions and interactive activities that tell the story of life under the tropical sea. Many people choose to combine a trip to the quarry with a visit to the museum to get the most out of the area. It's an ideal destination for families who want to learn and experience.
