| The
fine-grained "white Main sandstone" from the Triassic period (Coburger
Bausandstein) is extracted from the Schönbrunn Quarry in the Hassberge
administrative district of Bavaria. Thanks to the favourable geological
conditions at this site, dimensional stones measuring up to 8 m³ can
be produced. Schönbrunn sandstone is particularly well suited for natural
stone facades, and was used, for example, for the Federal Chancellory in
Berlin in 2001. Many historic buildings in the region of Bamberg and Coburg are built of "white Main sandstone". Schönbrunn sandstone is highly valued in the conservation of historic monuments because of its even structure and texture. |
