The Bockelsberg and the surrounding area were designed and reforested on the initiative of senior forester a.D. Hermann Busse and the Lüneburg Beautification Association he founded in 1887.
Many ponds were also created. A fisherman managed 20 fish ponds. The Fischerhaus was built for him. Designed by the architect Hermann Matthies, known for his local style, it was completed in 1894.

One of the large ponds has several smaller islands in the middle. Ideal breeding ground for grey herons (in the trees), a pair of swans, Canada geese, ducks and rails.

... I love this place - especially early in the morning when you're alone there and there's mist over the ponds ...

Next to the loop of the idyllic heath river Ilmenau, there are a few ponds where you can observe ducks, swans and many wonderful flora and fauna.
