About: Papenkaule

An Entity of Type: SpatialThing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Papenkaule (also Papenkaul in the local dialect) is a dry crater of a volcano that was active about 10,000 years ago. It lies north of Gerolstein in the Eifel mountains in Germany. The lava which was released as the result of an explosion did not, however, flow out of the vent of the Papenkaule, but reached the surface to the west of it at the Hagelskaule and streamed southwards into the Kyll valley. Because the bedrock below the Papenkaule is porous dolomite, no crater lake was able to form.

dbo:abstract
  • Die Papenkaule (im Dialekt auch Papenkaul genannt) ist der trockene Krater, den eine phreatische Explosion vor ca. 10.000 Jahren in den zur Gerolsteiner Kalkmulde gehörenden Dolomit der Munterley nördlich von Gerolstein/Eifel sprengte. Die nach der Explosion freigesetzte Lava floss allerdings nicht aus dem Schlot der Papenkaule, sondern trat westlich davon in der Hagelskaule zu Tage und strömte südwärts als Sarresdorfer Lavastrom bis ins Kylltal. Da der Dolomit im Untergrund der Papenkaule wasserdurchlässig ist, bildete sich kein Kratersee. (de)
