Drakamp Godensholt If you set out to explore the origins of the place name Godenholt, you'll quickly be immersed in the exciting, ancient mythological story that even inspired Hollywood to create a multi-part saga. Anthony Hopkins plays the one-eyed but wise god Odin, who directs history in Asgard and, in addition to his family, is surrounded by ravens. In South Germanic usage, Odin is called Wotan or Wodan. From medieval documents, we know that present-day Godensholt was referred to as "Wodansholte," so it can be assumed that a sacred forest dedicated to the god Wodan was once located at this ancient Stone Age settlement in the Apen community. The sound shift from W to G is not uncommon in the development of our language; it is also found in the word "Holte" (wood) to "Wald"

It is worth taking a nice break here

A shelter to rest.

There is also a weather station here, just take a look around 😉

All the little birds are back...how nice 😍. Hopefully it stays that way now 🙏.

The nature reserve, marked NSG WE 285, is around 93 hectares in size. Around 81 hectares are in the Cloppenburg district and 12 hectares are in the Ammerland district. The 85 hectare FFH area of the same name is part of the nature reserve. The area has been protected since January 1, 2018. The responsible lower nature conservation authorities are the districts of Cloppenburg and Ammerland. The nature reserve is located east of Barßel. It protects a section of the lowlands of the eponymous Godensholter Deep with remnants of adjacent Ice Age inland dunes. The lowland is predominantly characterized by moist fens with grassland used as pasture or hay meadow. There are also reedbeds and moist tall herbaceous areas. In parts, riparian forest remnants, forest plots and groups of trees dominated by alder and ash are growing. In places there are oxbow lakes from the Godensholter Tief.

We can only hope that this work of art is preserved and does not fall victim to souvenir hunters, which has already happened several times.

This favorite place is in the district of Apermarsch in the middle of fields and pastures. It was the first object to be installed in June 2020. This place became my favorite place because the sunrise can be enjoyed wonderfully here. - If you drop by early, you might meet like-minded people greeting the sun with a thermos of tea. Jörg Ridderbusch's work reflects this moment with "many colorful birds" that accompany the sunrise with a concert and chirp happily. The 2.40 m high tower is populated by colorful sparrows, who happily enjoy their existence and "whistle" to the cat lurking below.
