Very nice and awesome combination of extensions

Great webiste, indeed. Only thing I'd recommend was to reduce some picture sizes, https://www.archaeologie.bl.ch/uploads/images/fundstellen/impressionfotos/Liestal_Burghalden1.jpg for example is 1024x680 but is reduced through css to 455x302. Serving a scaled image could save 220.5KiB (80% reduction). Well, its just a minor thing, otherwise it is very well organised and simply beautiful.

Hey Greta, thanks for the comment. These images can go up to 800*600 on large screens 2560x1440px (and larger resolutions) and on hover they get animated zoom-in which scales to the real size. That's why the user chose to keep the sizes as they are to keep the quality great on large screens.

I see

Thanks for the explanation Teodor, this makes a lot of sense. Responsive design has its own rules, as one can see here.
