history

Seminar for nature conservation workers (1979)

Due to fluctuations in the water level, including changes in the height of the mill dam and the regulation of the Elde , the haunted hole was temporarily part of the Müritz.

A 280 hectare nature reserve Müritzhof was already designated on the Müritz terrace in 1931. In 1949 the Spukloch became part of the 48 km² large nature reserve east bank of the Müritz , which was one of the largest protected areas in the GDR. Since 1990 the body of water has belonged to the Müritz sub-area of ​​the Müritz National Park.

Flora and fauna

The Flachsee has almost all of the ground lawn and diving corridors (both aquatic plants ). In the vicinity of the water in the Spuklochkoppel there is one of the last juniper heaths in the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, which developed after 1940 from a guarding area after decreasing grazing and care intensity. To preserve the landscape, this area is now grazed with mountain cattle and Gotland sheep. The Fjäll cattle were brought in as early as 1969.

  • Wet meadow near the haunted hole (1990)

The haunted hole is part of a crane resting place in the shallow water areas east of the Müritz. Up to 8500 cranes a year fortify themselves in this area on their autumn bird migration southwards.
