The brick factory Borgwedel nature experience area is a former brick factory site directly on the Schlei. The clay deposits from the Ice Age and the favorable traffic situation on the Schlei were good prerequisites for a brickworks. About four million bricks from Borgwedel were shipped on sailing ships and later steamers to Schleswig, Eckernförde, Kiel-Friedrichsort, England and the Baltic region. The nature experience area is accessible all year round.

On the former brickworks site directly on the Schlei, you can discover how this area was used industrially on the one hand, and on the other, observe how nature could unfold over decades and recapture the brickworks site.
