Bockholter Berge, Protected area in Greven, Germany.
The Bockholter Berge nature reserve spans 61 hectares and features pine forests, sand dunes, and heathlands between the Ems River and Schiffahrter Damm.
The area was established as a protected zone in 1939, following a transformation from open heathland to forested territory between 1850 and 1900.
A memorial cross and plaque were installed in 2001 to commemorate two Polish prisoners of war who were executed at this location in 1942.
Regular maintenance activities include deforestation and bush removal to preserve the natural heathland characteristics of the protected area.
The northern section contains oak forests while the central area combines mixed pine forests with open sand surfaces covered by juniper shrubs.
