The Ramselbruch is a nature reserve with a size of 53.09 ha in the municipality of Hövelhof in the Paderborn district. It is listed with the number PB-023. The area was first designated as a protected area in the 1930s, making it one of the oldest nature reserves in East Westphalia-Lippe.

The area of the Ramselbruch, whose name "Ramsel", which occurs more frequently in northern Germany, is interpreted as "swampy lowland", lies on the southern edge of an Ice Age moraine wall. The loamy-clayey soil layer created by this condition leads to a damming of the surface water, which is the reason for the formation of the swamp forest.

Today's protected area of the Ramselbruch originally consisted of two parts. The western part was leased by the Münster nature conservation association as early as 1930 and placed under protection in 1939 by an ordinance of the then Minden administrative district. The first decree to place the eastern part under protection was in 1937. In 1969, both areas were merged by the Detmold administrative district, which is now responsible. The ordinance on the Senne landscape plan was renewed in 1983.

In addition to the Langenbergteich, the Kipshagen ponds and the Furlbach valley, the Ramselbruch is one of the oldest protected areas in the Senne.
