Die Reit, Protected nature area in Bergedorf, Germany

Die Reit spans 93 hectares between Dove Elbe and Gose Elbe rivers, featuring reed beds, willow thickets, and flowering meadows resulting from former brick manufacturing.

The area received protection status on August 21, 1973, following the transformation of its landscape through brick production activities that began in 1883.

The NABU research station at Die Reit has documented and ringed over 170,000 birds since 1973, contributing to international bird migration studies.

The research station operates from June 30 to November 6, and visitors must schedule appointments in advance to access the facilities.

The area serves as a migration point for millions of birds, where researchers study population changes and the effects of climate change on bird patterns.
