Otyń Natura 2000 Site

Otyń is a Natura 2000 Special Area of Conservation in the Lubuskie Voivodeship of western Poland, designated under the code PLH080040. Unlike the large landscape parks that the platform most often profiles, Otyń is an exceptionally small protected site, tied not to a wilderness expanse but to the attic of a single church. The Church of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross in the village of Otyń hosts this designation because its roof space has become a significant breeding colony site for the greater mouse-eared bat. The site is classified as a Special Area of Conservation, the Polish implementation of the European Union Habitats Directive framework, and it was established with the explicit purpose of safeguarding the life of Myotis myotis. Although the area covers only a fraction of a hectare, its ecological importance is measured in bat populations and the continued viability of a long-standing maternity roost, rather than in surface terrain. For the broader platform, Otyń represents the kind of small-scale, species-specific European protected site that complements larger national park profiles and supports searches for Natura 2000 areas, bat conservation themes, and lesser-known ecological sites in western Poland.

Review Otyń earthquake events by date and distance

Investigate historical earthquake records in the area near Otyń

Otyń’s earthquake view associates reported epicentres with its western Polish conservation site by calculated distance, without assigning seismic meaning to lowland terrain or greater mouse-eared bat protection. Each record provides a date, magnitude, depth, locality, source, and site distance for historical comparison without asserting ecological effects, present hazard, or future activity.

More independently documented protected places after Otyń

Otyń is an unusually small Natura 2000 site centred on a church-attic colony of greater mouse-eared bats, so its earthquake context is geographically specific. The pages offered next broaden discovery and should not be read as sharing its habitat scale, designation, landscape, geology, seismic record, nearby location, hazard profile, or documentation.
