Ilvericher Altrheinschlinge, Nature reserve in Meerbusch, Germany

The Ilvericher Altrheinschlinge reserve encompasses 330 hectares of wetlands, meadows, and woodland areas along the former Rhine River bed.

The protected area gained its official status in 1981, with additional preservation measures implemented in 1990 to safeguard its ecological significance.

Local farmers maintain traditional agricultural practices within designated zones of the reserve, preserving the regional connection between nature and agriculture.

The reserve contains remnants of drift blocks made of brown coal quartzite, which are protected as natural monuments within the conservation area.
