Lötters gemstones and sculpture gallery
More information
Is it a gemstone shop, a gallery or a museum? There is something to be said for all three names. A shop because you can buy the most beautiful jewelry and gemstones at Lötters Gemstones, a gallery because everything in the display cases is very artfully made by people and nature and a museum because there are so many types, sizes and shapes of stones on display. Either way, the building at Vischpoortstraat 28 in Elburg is more than worth a visit.
