Limestone has been used in the construction of cemeteries, buildings and fortifications since ancient times, and most of our most important architectural monuments are also made of limestone. Today, limestone is used in both exterior and interior architecture. Limestones are suitable for both kitchen countertops and flooring, which is very unique and mysterious with its petrified fossils. Hansakivi mainly uses Jura limestone in its production e. Jura marble, which is inherently more durable and has a stronger structure than limestone and dolomite found in Estonia. The name Jura marble or Jura limestone derives from the Jura period, when limestone sediments that later became limestone settled about 160 to 140 million years ago. There are quite a lot of fossils in Jura marble – ammonites, fossils of crustaceans, sponges, etc. Jurassic limestone is a rock from the time of the dinosaurs.
