Schellbruch, Protected area in Lübeck, Germany.
The Schellbruch reserve encompasses 146 hectares of wetlands, marshes, lagoons, and smaller forests near the lower Trave River in Lübeck.
The area faced potential development for harbor expansion in the 1970s, but citizen resistance and mayoral support led to its protection in 1981.
Over 200 bird species recorded since 1960 make this location a central point for bird watching and nature observation in northern Germany.
Visitors can explore designated paths and observation points along a 6-8 kilometer trail starting from the Fahrenheitweg stop in Lübeck.
The Medebek stream from Lauerholz forest flows into the Great Lagoon, creating a mixture of fresh and brackish water environments.
