More Over
The Posta Elbe sandstone is particularly valued for design with natural stone due to its characteristic colour, texture and appearance, but above all because of its proven frost-proof quality. Numerous historical objects bear witness to this. Its good physical and technical properties allow it to be used both indoors and outdoors. Tested and confirmed weather resistance is also an important feature here.
The "Alte Poste" quarry of Posta sandstone has been mined for several centuries.
The regional Posta sandstone "Alte Poste" is a particularly sustainable building material.
