Westliches Hollerland

Westliches Hollerland is a 293-hectare nature reserve in the city-state of Bremen in northwestern Germany. It preserves a remaining fragment of the historic Hollerland cultural landscape, a low-lying marshland that Dutch settlers reclaimed and cultivated beginning in the early twelfth century. The reserve is defined by a dense, roughly 90-kilometer-long drainage ditch network winding through wet meadows, small ponds, and relict woodland. This managed wet grassland supports breeding meadow birds, migrating waterfowl, amphibians, dragonflies, and rare plant communities, including a small inland saline spring known as the Pannlake. The area is notable not only for its ecological value but also for its protection history. After large-scale residential development plans threatened the landscape in the 1960s and 1970s, a sustained citizen campaign led to its designation as a nature reserve in 1985 and, ultimately, its inclusion under the European Union Habitats Directive in 2004.

Review Hollerland observations by date, depth, place, and distance

Study the historical earthquake record associated with Hollerland

Hollerland’s earthquake collection uses epicentre locations and distance to Bremen’s wet-grassland, drainage-ditch, and meadow-bird reserve. Dates, magnitudes, depths, localities, separation, and sources remain searchable as historical observations without treating nearby records as inside the site or claiming wetland influence, damage, current danger, cause, or prediction.
