German Gold Museum

“Under the direction of geologist Dr. Markus Schade, who is a profound expert on many gold deposits in Germany, Europe, Siberia, Alaska, Canada, USA, Australia and New Zealand, an exhibition was created that takes you into the mysterious world of a fascinating metal. In three sections, old practical experiences and the latest scientific findings on the history, geology and extraction of gold in Thuringia, Germany and beyond are presented in an easy-to-understand and entertaining way. Follow the development of gold from the invisible trace element to the highlight of the exhibition.” (Source: Museen Thüringen)
