Riemeisterfenn, Nature reserve in Steglitz-Zehlendorf, Germany.

The Riemeisterfenn spreads across 7.2 hectares of wetlands and contains a network of swampy lowlands surrounding the silted Riemeistersee lake.

The reserve gained protected status on September 12, 1963, after the area's groundwater levels decreased due to extensive water extraction in early 1900s Berlin.

The name Riemeisterfenn derives from the historical position of Riedmeister, who supervised the management of forests and lakes in the region.

Visitors can access the reserve through multiple hiking trails, including connections to Krumme Lanke lake and the adjacent Langes Luch nature reserve.

The reserve contains one of Berlin's last remaining moors, preserving original vegetation and providing habitat for rare plants like the marsh orchid.
