Paleo research and science communication
combined in one project!
Welcome to
Discover a hidden world and meet the predecessors of the dinosaurs and mammals!
We dig for fossils that have never been seen before, traces of life hidden inside of rocks for more than 290 million years. As an interdisciplinary team of scientists and different specialists we investigate the history of life on Earth directly on-site and in our research labs in museums and universities in Germany. We want to understand how life was developing at that time and what we can learn from it.
Where can we do all of this? In BROMACKER, the unique research project around an ongoing excavation site in the heart of the Thuringian Forest.
Curious? You can become part of BROMACKER yourself! Come and visit us directly at the BROMACKER lab in Gotha or on-site during the digging season. Start your discovery tour now – BROMACKER is waiting for you!
