    According to the mapping from 1893 to 1895, the area totaled 312 hectares of contiguous peatland. The Füchtorfer Moor was one of the largest lowland bogs in Westphalia. Numerous finds from the Bronze Age and megalithic tombs indicate an early settlement. In 1844 a skeleton of an auroch was found there, which is now exhibited in the Geological-Paleontological Museum in Münster. In 1986 another auroch skeleton was found about 3.5 km from the first site. In the 1960s and 1970s, the bog area was greatly reduced by drainage and land consolidation. On August 24, 2007, the area was designated as a nature reserve.
