The Rehwiese , formerly also called Kuhfenn or Franzosenwiese , is an almost 1½ kilometer long and relatively narrow depression in the Berlin district of Nikolassee in the Steglitz-Zehlendorf district .

Protected position

The Rehwiese was declared a protected part of the landscape in accordance with Sections 5 and 19 of the Reich Nature Conservation Act of June 26, 1935 ( RGBl.  I, p. 821) in the version of the Third Amendment Act of January 20, 1938 (RGBl. I, p. 36) and on the basis of § 13 of the implementing ordinance of October 31, 1935 (RGBl. I, p. 1275) in the version of the supplementary ordinance of September 16, 1938 (RGBl. I, p. 1184) and last amended by the ordinance of September 22, 1982 GVBl., P. 1808). The law came into force on August 25, 1960.

description

It stretches from the Spanische Allee to the Nikolassee . Before the Nikolassee colony was established in 1901, the deer that gave it its name often grazed in the valley-shaped roe deer meadow .

As part of the Grunewald chain of lakes, the then swampy bottom depression connects the Nikolassee with the Schlachtensee and is now largely drained. The character of the Grunewald chain of lakes as an ice-age intermediate torrent valley can be clearly seen in the Rehwiesensenke. On both sides of the slopes are the villas from the turn of the 20th century. Muddy strips can still be found at the exit to Nikolassee, which, with its marshy surroundings, offers the remnants of valuable alluvial forests the necessary soaked soil.

The Rehwiese and the Nikolassee have been designated as a landscape protection area with an area of ​​25.6  hectares since 1960 . The ordinance excludes the facilities of the Berliner Wasserbetriebe "for the extraction, forwarding and enrichment of the groundwater", which deliver three million cubic meters of water annually from twelve wells in the Rehwiese; between 1983 and 1992 it was around nine million cubic meters a year. The re-emerged wet areas should be preserved and the woody growth suppressed. Lovers of blackberries get their money's worth in the Rehwiese in autumn .
