Winter sunset
Result in the restoration of large-scale winter flooding by creating / improving water retention opportunities as a habitat for breeding and resting birds.
Throttle structure
Technical control structures enable the water level to be raised and lowered according to the seasons, the result of cooperation between hydraulic engineers and landscape architects.
Visitor guidance
The paths and the equipment allow the visitor to visit the Meerbruchwiesen without diffusely "penetrating" the area.
Marsh marigold meadow
According to the maintenance and development plan, typical plant species of low or neglected grassland use are established - such as the marsh marigold (Caltha palustris), slender sedge (Carex acuta) or branched hedgehog (Sparganium erectum).
Meadowsweet
The reduction of ditch maintenance on the ditch bank and in the watercourse allows meadowsweet (Filipendula ulmaria) and river dock (Rumex hydrolapathum) to bloom in late summer. Frogspoon, rush and bunchgrass in the ditch cause a natural water retention.
Riparian strips in winter
Strips of reed (Phragmites australis) also mark the edges of water bodies in winter.
Watering Meadow
Through water management according to nature conservation objectives, a site mosaic of differently extended flooding duration is established. The marsh meadows are partially "bare".
