An in situ beardog footprint is exhibited at the Tasnadi Hall at the Prehistoric Pompeii.

A dangerous shark emergency was averted by the area's staff of the Ipolytarnoc Fossils. Our investigative Petrified looked into the matter. He found out that the feared cartilaginous fish specimen did not swim up the River Ipoly, it followed a different way. But what was it?

The Ipolytarnoc Fossils joins to the European Geoparks Week's activity, which takes place at late May early June each year. It is a European – wide festival of the Geoparks aimed at raising public awareness of geoconservation and promotion of the geoheritage of our old continent. Due to the pandemic restrictions only outdoor programs will be available to the visitors this year.

As of 1 May 2021, following the latest coronavirus regulations, with some extra rules our Miocene Park reopens again. The world-famous geosite, managed by the Bükk National Park Directorate, is the gateway to the Novohrad-Nógrád UNESCO Global Geopark, and you can now really enter it, Come and visit us!

The first national press report about the famous footprints of the Prehistoric Pompeii appeared in the " Pest Diary" on Friday, August 17, 1900, 120 years ago. We commemorate on this event.
