Description | The quarry location and survival of remnants of species-rich forest-steppe vegetation in the close vicinity were ideal to start a unique reclamation project aimed at restoring a mosaic of species-rich habitats. The project was realised from the year 1998 to the year 2009. New occurrence of 17 species of vascular plants and 6 ha of restored dry grassland habitats were a main result of it. |
