The nature reserve "Alder Swamp and Castle Meadows Rheda" is located in the middle of the Rheda district and covers a total of 26 hectares. Due to its urban location, the protected area can be used by visitors at any time for a walk or a bike ride and is considered a local recreation area for young and old. The heart of the area is the Rheda moated castle, first mentioned in 1170. The landscape of the nature reserve is characterized by wet meadows and an alder swamp forest. Overall, there is a very high groundwater level, which is based on an artificial damming of the Ems and is, among other things, essential for the preservation of the castle, as the oak posts on which the castle was built must not come into contact with oxygen, otherwise they would rot. Instead of the wet forest that can be found now, the so-called bleaching meadows were in front of the castle in earlier times. Here, linen fabrics were washed in the water of the bleaching ditches and then laid out to dry on the nearby meadows until the desired color quality of the linen was achieved through the influence of sunlight.
