fossil

Small fossil school for the whole family

Learn, tap and find remains of exciting prehistoric animals in the Öland limestone.

As curious geologists, we examine the limestone and surely find remains of animals that lived in the seas many millions of years ago when Öland was formed. The fossils of octopuses and other aquatic animals are quite common and it is mainly these that we are looking for.

We search, knock and learn under the guidance of geologist Jan Mikaelsson and island guide Ann-Charlotte Garhammar.

Bring a big dose of curiosity.
