The Twedter Feld ( Danish Tved Ager ) is a nature reserve in the Schleswig-Holstein city ​​of Flensburg , in its Mürwik district , which borders the Blocksberg area to the east and whose trees and the Fördewald form a forest area. The area does not correspond to the Mürwiker area Twedter Mark and also not the area Am Fördewald at the Twedter Feld road .

location

Twedter Feld is located in the east of the city of Flensburg, in the Mürwik district, in its Friedheim district . To the north and west, it borders directly on the residential development of the city district that emerged in the 20th century. The natural area is now the only one in the city that is designated as a nature reserve. The reserve consists of the former site training area Twedter field and the adjacent south from former agricultural land . The approximately 89  hectare nature reserve is registered with the number 186 in the directory of nature reserves of the Ministry of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Areas. It was declared as of April 25, 2003 (date of regulation: March 20, 2003). The nature reserve is located in the extensive FFH area DE-1123-393 “ Coastal areas of Flensburg Fjord from Flensburg to Geltinger Birk ”, which makes it part of the European Natura 2000 network of protected areas .

In the north and south-east of the nature reserve as well as in the south on federal road 199 , the part of the landscape part of the Tremmerup forest settlement connects . To the east of Twedter Feld is the part of the landscape called Blocksberg. These two areas were officially grouped under the name: "Landschaftsschutzgebiet Bauernwald" as a landscape protection area (cf. list of landscape protection areas in the city of Flensburg ), although they are not connected to one another and do not consist of forest. The term peasant forest is generally not so common for these areas. On the other side of the main road, to the southeast of the nature reserve, is the landscape protection area "Landschaftteil Vogelsang-Trögelsby ".

history

The area was occupied by Buchenwald after the end of the Ice Age . The forest was used by immigrant settlers in the Middle Ages and some of it was cut down. The name Twedter Feld was first mentioned in 1587, but was initially used to designate various areas near Twedt (see Twedter Mark ). On October 22, 1936, the road "Twedter Feld" leading to the Twedter Feld area received its name. The old farm located on the edge of the Twedter Feld was given the address Twedter Feld 1. It was separated from the Twedter Feld by the later residential development.

During the time of the Empire , the Twedter Feld shooting range was apparently set up on Tremmerupweg. Later the Wehrmacht operated the Twedter Feld shooting range. When the last imperial government settled in Flensburg - Mürwik in the last days of the Second World War , Twedter Feld belonged to the so-called Mürwik special area . On May 5, 1945, shortly before the end of the war, three sailors, Karl-Heinz Freudenthal , Günther Kaellander and Willi Albrecht , who served on the Z 5 Paul Jacobi and wanted to prevent the ship from leaving port on May 3 by sabotage, executed at the Twedter Feld shooting range. On May 6, 1945, Lieutenant Asmus Jepsen was also executed there as a deserter . On May 11, 1945, the marine soldier Johann Christian Süß was executed there as one of the last victims of the Nazi tyranny.

After the Second World War , a large part of the tree population of the Twedter field was lost. The trees were then used as firewood. After the war, the Twedter Feld shooting range was initially used by the Flensburg customs school , which was located in the Mürwik naval school. After the end of the customs school, the Bundeswehr took over the Twedter Feld shooting range. Since the Twedter field was used for military purposes until 1994, a successional forest with a wide variety of habitats could develop naturally .

After the political change in Eastern Europe in the 1990s, the military was restructured after reunification. Large parts of the city were affected by this process, including the Flensburg-Mürwik base in particular . As a result, the military also gave up the Twedter Feld property and the neighboring Tremmeruper site . A narrow edge area of ​​the Twedter field at the shooting range was built on in the time after. The Flensburg victim of the Nazi naval justice Asmus Jepsen was given the street name Asmus-Jepsen-Weg there in honor . The shooting range wall there should be preserved.

In 2003 the “Twedter Feld” nature reserve was finally established. The responsible lower nature conservation authority is the city of Flensburg today. The “Twedter Feld” road now leads to the nature reserve generally known as the “Twedter Feld”.

  • The Twedter Feld No. 1 farm is now a little outside the Twedter Feld nature reserve.

It is partly on an overgrown inland dune . There are also damp depressions and swampy areas. With Mühlenbek and Weesbek, two streams run through the nature reserve. Several small bodies of water can be found in the southern part in particular. The transition area from the forest in the north to the open grassland areas in the south of the protected area is occupied by fringe communities .
