2.2.7. Basalt Quarries in the Mayen Area
Basalt has been quarried in the Eastern Eifel area near Mayen and Ettringen since Roman times. A large number of seemingly forgotten cranes can be found in the abandoned quarries, sometimes overgrown with bushes and birch trees, sometimes collapsed, sometimes reduced to skeletons.
