Glaner Heide

Nature Reserve

Germany - Niedersachsen

Area: 0.16km²

The 16-hectare conservation area essentially consists of an area of heathland with six Neolithic and Bronze Age burial sites. Pine and birch-oak forests can be found in the peripheral areas. The aim of the conservation area is to preserve the near-natural gorse-sand heath communities and the culturally and historically significant burial sites. In the center of the area, the Stone Age burial sites, the so-called “Glaner Braut”, can be found on a slight hill.
