Bissendorfer Moor, Raised peat bog in Wedemark and Langenhagen, Germany
The Bissendorfer Moor extends over 110 hectares with peat layers reaching depths of up to 7 meters across the Hanover moorland region.
In 1971, the area received protected status to prevent a peat extraction company from expanding their operations in this natural landscape.
The MOORiZ information center provides educational programs and exhibitions focusing on the ecological importance of peat bogs in Lower Saxony.
Two observation towers at the northern and southern edges allow visitors to view the protected area without entering the sensitive bog ecosystem.
Scientists have documented 108 different moss species in this bog, representing an exceptionally high biodiversity for this type of environment.
