Stone Age Day - World Cultural Leap
06/07, 11:00 - 17:00
UNESCO World Heritage Site "Höhlen and Ice Age Art of the Swabian Alb"
Go on a journey back to the Ice Age to the Palaeolithic hunters and gatherers in the Ach and Lone valleys near Ulm.
Find out how our ancestors lived in the time of the great mammoths, what techniques they used to work stone and ivory and what connections there were to other important archaeological sites along the Danube as far as the Black Sea.
Touching, asking, marvelling and "grasping" will not be neglected during the encounter with an almost real Ice Age hunter.
If you want to take a special souvenir home with you, you can slip into the clothes of an Ice Age man for a photo and feel like a real Ice Age hunter for a moment.
Children can test their manual skills and take part in great hands-on activities. With a little creativity, they can make unique pieces of wood or design Stone Age tattoos that will remind them of their trip to the Ice Age for a long time to come.
Stories for children in the children's tent:
Stories from the Ice Age at 11.30 am, 2.30 pm & 3.30 pm
