Natural history exhibition and geological outcrop<\/strong><\/p>\n

Geographical location<\/h3>\n
Near Klinge, 12 km east of Cottbus, the Cottbus Museum of Nature and Environment has been conducting a geological-palaeontological excavation in Eemian-Warm Pleistocene lake deposits since 1985.<\/div>\n
The outcrop is located between a former clay pit and the southern slope of the J\u00e4nschwalde open pit. In a 2-3 m high, 2 m wide and 12 m long section, the stratigraphic sequence of an Eemian-Warm Period to Early Weichselian-Cold Period lake is exposed in a picture-perfect manner.<\/div>\n

Characteristics<\/h3>\n
The \"Zeitsprung Open-Air Museum\" was opened on 17 May 2008. The municipality of Wiesengrund created this open-air museum on the site adjacent to the Eem deposit with the help of public funding. It is located in the immediate vicinity of the future Klinger Lake, which is currently being flooded. The knowledge of the importance - and thus the protection - of this Eem deposit is mainly due to the commitment of the geologists Rolf and Ursula Striegler. Their excavations brought unique insights into the geological development during the Eemian warm period.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
On the grounds of the museum, a wetland biotope, various display boards and a shelter building have been created, in which visitors are greeted by an original-sized replica of a woolly-haired female mammoth with her offspring in front of a recreated Eemian-Warm Period landscape. The site of the first mammoth skeleton in Germany to be found almost completely preserved was in the neighbourhood. This fossil find is preserved by the Museum f\u00fcr Naturkunde in Berlin. A replica true to the original can be seen in the district house in Forst (Lausitz). On an adventure trail, visitors can marvel at full-size replicas of a giant deer and a woolly rhinoceros.<\/div>\n
The museum is run by the \"Interessengemeinschaft Klinger See e.V.\". The objectives of the association include:<\/div>\n
