Blasiusberg

Nature Reserve

Nature reserves constitute one of the most important conservation categories in Germany and Austria. The exact definitions vary, but together they combine the conservation of natural landscape, the protection of endangered species and the preservation for scientific interests.

Der „Blasiusberg“ liegt auf einer Basaltkuppe vulkanischen Ursprunges und gehört zu den ältesten Naturschutzgebieten Hessens. Während bei der ersten Ausweisung des Gebietes seine kulturhistorische Bedeutung im Vordergrund stand, sollte die Neuausweisung des Gebietes in den 1980er Jahren das Vorrücken eines Steinbruches verhindern. Damit konnte sichergestellt werden, dass die besonderen Tier- und Pflanzengemeinschaften im Gebiet langfristig erhalten bleiben. Auf dem „Blasiusberg“ gedeihen schützenswerte Laub- und Mischwaldgesellschaften, Waldmeister-Buchenwald und sehr stark an die kargen Standortbedingungen angepasste Magerrasen mit seltenen, streng geschützten Orchideen.
