Riemke, Nature reserve in Hemer, Germany.

The Riemke nature reserve spans 10.52 hectares, featuring reed beds of cattails and common reeds in its shallow water sections.

Established in 1989, this protected area was transformed from a former limestone processing plant's settlement pond that ceased operations around 1970.

The reserve serves as an educational site where visitors can learn about the ecological transformation of industrial areas into thriving natural habitats.

The conservation area maintains specific regulations, including restrictions on mowing open areas before June 15 and prohibiting fish stocking in the waters.

The site harbors numerous orchid species, including broad-leaved marsh orchids, while providing breeding grounds for reed buntings and marsh warblers.
