The quarry is characterized by quarry walls up to 40 meters high, on which the various layers of shell limestone emerge. There is semi- arid grass at the top of the dismantling walls . A valuable wetland habitat has developed on the bottom of the quarry .

The deciduous forest adjacent to the quarry has a well-developed, species-rich herb layer . In the edge areas of the nature reserve there is partly grassland .

The quarry and its peripheral areas should largely be left to their natural development. The semi-arid grassland and the wet biotope should be protected in their development.
