Guided fossil hunt

One bends down and picks up a rock. With your pickaxe, you split the stone in half. And what then appears in the interior of the stone? Yes, if you're lucky, the stone has been hiding a secret for 55 million years! Perhaps a petrification of an insect, a fish or a leaf from a tree will appear. Fossils are abundant in the pier tombs at Nordmors. Take one of the museum's skilled guides down into the museum's very own pier pit, just a stone's throw from the Fossil and Moler Museum. Armed with the right tools, you join forces in search of the unique fossils that have been hiding in the underground for millions of years. Do you find anything? Yes, then feel free to take it home!

Fossils and fish evolution - Lecture

It is known throughout Denmark and gradually over most of the globe that the moclay deposits at Mors and Fur contain some special and fantastically well-preserved fish fossils. As evidenced by the recently submitted UNESCO World Heritage Application, these fossils are extremely important for understanding the earliest evolution of the bony fish species that swim in the oceans today. The museum puts this into perspective in a lecture that gives a clear picture of what the area around Mors looked like 55 million years ago, and how the fossils from here are of great importance for understanding the evolution of life.
