Dürnberger Moor

The Dürnberger Moor exudes an idiosyncratic charm and mysterious originality.

As a witness to the Ice Age, the moor invites you to take a journey of discovery and gives visitors insights into its sensitive habitat. Rare animals and plants, such as the carnivorous sundew, have their home here. From the observation tower you can see the moor and its landscapes.
