The rail parts and sleepers used are from the former peat railway. The meMOORial is reminiscent of intensive peat mining as heating or insulating material and for locomotive lighting.

Located in a dead ice basin, the Haspelmoor is the northernmost raised moor that was created by the Isar-Loisach foreland glacier. The first evidence of settlement confirms that people lived and hunted around the former meltwater lake 11,000 years ago. From the 17th century onwards, the lake, which has now silted up, was used as a pasture for cattle; the first peat cuttings can be found. With the construction of the first railway line from Munich to Augsburg (1838/1839), it was partially drained and the Haspelmoor train station was built. The good transport connections made it possible to extract peat on a large scale for the operation of locomotives. Up to 1,600 peat workers were employed for this at the time.

You can discover berry bushes such as blueberries, cranberries and cranberries. Heather, sundew and rosemary heather can also be found there. In addition to rare butterflies, the Haspelmoor is also a habitat for reptile species such as the sand lizard or the adder.

The Haspelmoor was added to the list of Bavarian geotopes.

By continuously closing many drainage ditches, the groundwater level could be raised again over a large area, which promotes the rewetting of the moor. You can discover berry bushes such as blueberries, cranberries and cranberries. Heather, sundew and rosemary heather can also be found there.

From 1915 onwards, attempts were made to reclaim the “peated” areas for agricultural use. The moor has been protected since 1985.
