Deutsches Vulkanmuseum Lava-Dome
The Lava Dome in Mendig is one of the most important museums on volcanism in Germany. Interactive exhibitions explain how volcanoes are formed, what forces are at work inside the earth and why the Eifel is volcanic. The combination of modern knowledge transfer with regional geological history is particularly impressive. Visitors are given vivid access to a topic that has shaped the landscape of the Eifel to this day.
