Jaarsmoor
The Jaarsmoorgraben is named after the Jaarsmoor formerly located between Eidelstedt and Schenefeld.
The formation of the Jaarsmoors began about 6000 years ago. Digested sludge from dead plankton organisms became the breeding ground for the cane grass vegetation, which covered lakes without drainage, sank to the ground and deepened.
The Jaarsmoor disappeared as a result of the construction of the Eidelstedt marshalling yard and the construction of settlements.
