Fischgut Riddagshausen

Highlight • Structure

Fish farming has been practiced in the ponds around the Riddagshausen monastery for more than 800 years. A prerequisite for the founding of the monastery was even the possibility of creating extensive ponds. The area around the Riddagshäuser ponds was designated a nature reserve early on because of its rare animal and plant species. Today, more than 20 different species of fish are bred in the ponds that are still used. Fischgut Riddagshausen offers a large variety of edible and smoked fish for sale.

Kreuz Pond (Riddagshausen Nature Reserve)

Highlight • Lake

With a size of twelve hectares, the Kreuzteich is the second largest pond in the Riddgagshäuser nature reserve after the Scharpenbruchteich. It is the habitat of numerous waterfowl, amphibians and insects. The fish pond is part of the pond system that was laid out 900 years ago around the Riddagshausen monastery. The Kreuzteich is probably Braunschweig's most popular ice skating surface when it's frozen over.
