The Fossil Museum of Bolca is the most important museum in the world for tropical sea fossils. Here you can view fish, aquatic and terrestrial plants, shells, insects that are all hard evidence of what lived on coral reefs over 50 million years ago. The fossils are mostly from ‘Pesciara’ which is a tunnel dug into a quarry pit. Other finds are from neighbouring areas, just showing that this branch of the Tetide Sea, which washed against Lessinia in the Third Age, was really rich with life.
