A volcanic area in the middle of Germany - dormant, but not extinct. Just 13,000 years ago, Germany's youngest landscape was created in the district of Mayen-Koblenz by the eruption of the Laacher See volcano. Was this the beginning of a new era of volcanic activity or the end of a period of constant eruptions lasting thousands of years?
