Holzendorfer See (Kuhlen-Wendorf)

The Holzendorfer See is an almost completely silted-up lake in the municipality of Kuhlen-Wendorf in the Ludwigslust-Parchim district in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.

The moored area near the districts of Holzendorf and Müsselmow is located in a side valley of the Warnow and is traversed by the Göwe . The approximately 40 hectare area is part of the Warnowseen nature reserve. In the northeastern area of ​​the protection area, a residual lake of around 0.9 hectares has been preserved, which is connected to the Göwe via a ditch.

The Holzendorfer See was created by the melting of a silted-up dead ice form south of a terminal moraine globe of the Pomeranian stage of the Vistula Ice Age . Around 1770 the course of the Göwe was relocated around the lake, in 1969 it was relocated. The regulations and the associated lowering of the water level led to the accelerated silting of the lake. On moist to wet eutrophic peat soils in the central area today is growing swamp harrows -Schilf- country reeds . Sporadic panicle sedges and gray willows occur. The edges are, except in the northeast, overgrown with alder forest.
