    magical place to stay. Heide pastor Wilhelm Bode, the founder of the nature reserve, is said to have often sat at the "pastor's ponds" in order to prepare his sermons in God's free nature.

      In order to ensure the long-term preservation of the pond landscape, the VNP Foundation concluded a cooperation agreement with the owner last year. In the future, the VNP will take care of the maintenance of the ponds. Thanks to funding from the Bingo Environmental Foundation and the district of Harburg, the dams in the pond system, known as monks, have now been replaced. The work turned out to be very time-consuming, as some dams were no longer stable and the water was sometimes still being conducted through them in wooden tubes. So not only the monks were replaced, but also new pipes were laid and some sections of the dam were rebuilt. Nevertheless, it was possible to dam the ponds again in time for moor and agile frogs, which spawn in these waters. Further care measures are to follow.

        These aren't the Pastorenteiche ponds, which are located a little further east. These are the Wesel fish ponds, which are also an idyllic spot and offer shady spots on hot days.
