Reinhardtsdorf Sandstone, Quarried sandstone in Reinhardtsdorf, Saxony, Germany.
Reinhardtsdorf sandstone is a sedimentary rock in shades of gray, white, and yellow, composed of fine to medium grains bonded by silica compounds. It is quarried from several sites in the region and used for various construction purposes.
The stone formed during the middle Turonian period of the Cretaceous era, roughly 90 to 100 million years ago. These deposits now create the distinctive table mountains and rock formations of Saxon Switzerland.
The stone shapes the distinctive rock formations throughout the Saxon Switzerland region and has been used for centuries in buildings and artworks. Quarrying traditions remain connected to local craftsmanship and regional identity.
This stone is easy to work with and split, making it popular among craftspeople. It resists moisture and weather well, making it practical for outdoor construction projects.
Despite repeated freeze-thaw cycles, this material retains its structure and loses very little mass. This resilience explains why it has been chosen for monuments and exposed locations for generations.
