Carboniferous fossils in “white stone” buildings in the Vladimir region

White limestone blocks of six 12th–13th century buildings in the Vladimir region were examined, namely: the Assumption Cathedral, the Cathedral of Saint Demetrius and St. George’s Church in Vladimir City, the Church of the Intercession on the Nerl in the Bogolyubovo village, St. George’s Cathedral in the town of Yuryev-Polsky, and the Cathedral of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the town of Suzdal. The survey was conducted in August 2024. Fossil remains of brachiopods, corals, fusulinid foraminifera, gastropods, crinoids and echinoids characteristic of the Myachkovo Horizon of the Moscovian Stage of the Middle Carboniferous were found in the limestone. In some cases, it is possible to examine details of their internal structure. Since these fossils are clearly visible to the naked eye, these white-stone buildings may be of not only historical but also paleontological interest, and the fossil remains therein may serve as exhibit material.
