The nature reserve Kammereckswiesen and Herchwiesen von Langen (NSG identification 1438006) is located in the Hessian district of Offenbach and lies in the south-western district on the border with the neighboring municipality of Egelsbach . The Kammereckswiesen are bounded by the Frankfurt – Darmstadt railway line in the east and Kreisstraße 168 in the west. The Herchwiesen, which were added in the spring of 2009, extend east of the railway line as an elongated strip to Egelsbacher Weg.

Area description

The nature reserve consists of meadow areas, which are composed of dry drift sand areas in a small space and, due to the partly clayey subsoil, also of moist locations. This is why rush meadows, marsh marigold meadows, reeds and woody plants could develop there in addition to rough meadows.

Protection purpose

The purpose of the protection is to preserve the extensively used grassland, the reed and large sedge stands as a habitat for a large number of endangered animal and plant species. This mosaic is habitat for a number of rare dragonflies and butterfly species, for example the dark blue ant. Botanically, angular leek ( Allium angulosum ), broad-leaved orchid ( Dactylorhiza majalis ) and beautiful carnation ( Dianthus superbus ) are among the specialties. Species such as the lapwing, whinchat, stonechat and gray bunting protruded from the avifauna, but these breeding occurrences no longer exist today.
