In 2023, a sandstone slab with strange tracks on it is discovered in Richelbach in the district of Miltenberg. Scientific investigation reveals that the tracks are those of dinosaurs. The exhibition "Dinosaurs in Sandstone" presents and explains this spectacular find.

How were the dinosaur tracks formed? What can be read from the tracks? What do we know about the living conditions at that time? What was the living environment of these dinosaurs like?

The exhibition brings the history of the earth to life with rich illustrations and explanatory panels. A video animation brings the dinosaur from the Richelbach trackway back to life.
