Polder Lüsche, Nature reserve in Bakum, Germany

Description

Polder Lüsche is a protected nature reserve in Bakum featuring an engineered water retention system with diverse vegetation. The site covers approximately 40 hectares with water bodies surrounded by varied plant communities.

History

The water management system was built between 1966 and 1974 to regulate water levels in the region. The site gained official protected status in 1985, recognizing its ecological value.

Culture

The site serves as a space where people learn about water control and habitat creation through direct observation. Visitors can see how local efforts focus on balancing human needs with natural environments.
