The bent ponds are a highlight of the extra class. In the past, clay was mined in the area for brick production. The excavated hollows ran full of water, created biotopes.

In the Furlbachtal, peat was formerly "mined" for the production of roof tiles in order to reach the clay layers. After mining, rainwater ran into the clay pits and so-called bent ponds were created - today valuable biotopes.
