DESCRIPTION
Old heathland and new wilderness - in a National Park Senne. Only a national park allows to preserve the old Westphalian natural, cultural and heath-landscapes, the protection of a unique species diversity within NRW (about a thousand “Red List” species), and to protect us from the legacy of over one hundred years of military history.TRANSCRIPT
The future of the Senne as a National Park is the best way to protect this precious treasure.
The SenneBecause the Senne has long been used as a military training area, its vast ecosystem has remained undisturbed by human development. The Senne is the most valuable land of this stature in North Rhine-Westphalia due to its: • poor nutrient availability and particu-
larly high species diversity• high abundance of regionally endange-
red animal and plant species• largest uninhabited and unfragmented
landscape of NRW• extensive space where nature may take
its course• large areas of regionally rare Westphali-
an heathland• highly interlaced and diverse mosaic of
habitats
We are committed to the establishment of a National Park in East-Westphalia-Lippe.
We, the Association for the Promotion of the National Park, see as our priorities to• inform and educate local citizens• provide professional competence and
scientific expertise• facilitate opportunities for local activi-
ties, participants and networks
A national park in the region offers many benefits. The protection category “Natio-nal Park” produces only winners!
