Kalksteinbrüche Rosengarten

Kalksteinbrüche Rosengarten is a nature reserve on former limestone quarries. Managed by BUND since 1978, it's vital for species protection, including ongoing moth mapping, preserving unique habitats.

The Kalksteinbrüche Rosengarten nature reserve, designated in 1983, transforms former limestone quarries into a vital sanctuary for nature. This unique landscape, once an industrial site, has been under the dedicated care of BUND Rheinland-Pfalz and its local Wonnegau group since 1978. Their ongoing efforts are crucial for the preservation and maintenance of the area. A core focus is species protection, with specific measures like night moth mapping implemented since 2022 to monitor and conserve the diverse invertebrate fauna. The reserve thus plays a significant role in safeguarding biodiversity within its distinctive geological setting.
