The Pulvermaar with Römerberg and Strohner Märchen nature reserve is a significant area within the Volcanic Eifel region of Germany. At its heart lies the Pulvermaar, one of the best-preserved maar lakes, known for its clear waters and pristine shores.

The Römerberg, seamlessly integrated into the landscape, contributes to the conservation of both the cultural-historical heritage and the natural beauty of the area. Additionally, the reserve encompasses the "Strohner Märchen," a term that suggests a charming geological feature or a picturesque stream landscape characteristic of the Volcanic Eifel. Diverse habitats, ranging from the dry slopes of the maar rim to humid stream valleys, support a remarkable array of plants and animals adapted to the specific conditions of this volcanic environment. Protecting these species and their habitats, alongside preserving the overall geological distinctiveness of the region, are the overarching objectives of this nature reserve.
