Today in the #RhenishStoneware quest we are in the south eastern corner of the stoneware region.

After the Spanish Netherlands happened Protestant potters moved south, already a little earlier Siegburg potters also went south because their forrests were depleted. They met local and Cologne/Frechem potters who also like the clay, abundant wood and quick connection to the Rhine and hence the Alter Markt in Cologne.
