The area was officially designated as protected in 1987, becoming part of Germany's nature conservation network. Further measures to secure and improve the habitats were carried out in 2005.
The area draws birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts who come to observe the variety of native species in their natural habitat. The mix of open water and dense forest creates different environments that invite visitors to watch and photograph wildlife.
