Landscape protection area of the Brilon plateau
The landscape protection area of the Brilon plateau with 1,387 hectares is located east of Brilon . The area was designated as a landscape protection area (LSG) by the Hochsauerlandkreis in 2001 with the Hoppecketal landscape plan . Parts of the LSG have belonged to two FFH areas since 2004 . In the area around the Buchholz (Brilon) nature reserve , parts of the LSG are located in the FFH area Buchholz near lead washing (DE 4518-301). Between the nature reserve Grüberg / Thülener stone , the nature reserve Lühlingsknapp and the nature reserve Ruhberg lying parts of the LSG part of the FFH area forests and sources of Almetals (DE 4518-303).
The LSG Brilon plateau was designated as one of four landscape protection areas of type A (general landscape protection) in the city of Brilon. In the urban area there are also 22 landscape protection areas of type B, outskirts, landscape character and 53 landscape protection areas of type C (meadow valleys and significant extensive grassland) with different requirements.
In the LSG, among other things, the erection of buildings is prohibited. Initial afforestation and the new planting of Christmas tree cultures, ornamental twigs and tree nursery cultures are subject to official approval from the Lower Nature Conservation Authority .
description
The landscape protection area of the Brilon plateau is an area of the Brilon limestone plateau characterized by its expanse and openness. Despite the unfavorable climatic conditions, it is one of the most fertile areas in the Sauerland . The limestone subsoil also contributes to this. The flat areas are mainly used as arable land and grassland. In contrast to other areas in the Sauerland, arable use predominates in the LSG. Only smaller forest areas belong to the LSG. Numerous wind turbines have been built in the protected area since the 1990s . To the north-east of Radlinghausen there is a large slurry tank that is also used for slurry tourism from the Münsterland and East Westphalia.
Protection purpose
The LSG was designed to preserve the peculiar landscape character of the Brilon plateau in the mountains; To secure the efficiency of the ecosystem against interventions; to supplement the areas of the natural area that are more strictly protected by designation as a nature reserve as buffer areas.
Legal regulations
As in the other landscape protection areas in the Hochsauerlandkreis, the LSG prohibits the construction of structures. Construction projects for horticulture, agriculture and forestry, the public supply of electricity, gas, telecommunications services, heat and water, wastewater management or an existing adjacent commercial operation are excluded from the ban ( Section 35 (1) No. 1 and 2 of the Building Code ). The construction of wind turbines and hydropower plants is also permitted with a building permit.
