The Scheergrund is a nature reserve (NSG) in the district of Central Saxony in Saxony . The 57.83 ha area with the NSG no. C 91 borders directly on Scheergrund , a district of the city of Leisnig .

The nature reserve was established by order of the Ministry of Agriculture, Registration and Forestry (MfLEF) of March 30, 1961 (Journal of Laws of GDR p. 166) and by resolution (No. 68 / VIII / 84) of the Leipzig District Assembly of September 20, 1984 fixed. The decision was last amended by an ordinance issued by the Leipzig Regional Council on November 2, 2001.

The western part of the nature reserve includes the wooded areas of the small side valley of the Freiberger Mulde, in which the connecting road to the locality of Tautendorf (Vorwerk), a district of Leisnig, runs. During the geological mapping the occurrence of Holocene calcareous tuffs was determined. This owes its origin to the separation of lime from springs , which emerge from the calcareous Weichsel cold-time loess and which also feed the nameless stream .

The extensive investigation in the second half of the 1960s revealed a varied sequence of sedimentation and erosion from the beginning of the Late Vistula Glacial to the present. The Klosterbuch occurrence is a standard profile for both the climatic development of the Holocene and the development of the mollusc fauna and the ostracodal fauna of Central Germany .

Remains of dams have been preserved in the upper reaches of the stream. They have recently been cut up by strong regressive erosion and this has recently even led to the formation of a small waterfall. A so-called wave-edge horseshoe was recovered from the dam material; these horseshoes were only in use until the end of the 14th century. The dams were probably necessary to maintain the traffic connection between the former Buch monastery and the Vorwerk Tautendorf, which has belonged to the monastery since 1228, and is probably also used for fish ponds up to the most recent times. In the middle reaches traces of fire and the finds of ceramics of the so-called "Schmierenbrennerware" indicate charcoal piles in the late High Middle Ages.
