When Reschbachklause is a relic from the time the timber rafting. It was created in 1860 as newly built in stone hermitage after the wooden old hermitage had been canceled from the 1848th The dam is 36 meters long and impounds Reschbach to a maximum depth of five meters on. This produces an approximately 215 meter wide water reservoir with a capacity of about 15,000 cubic meters of water. Between 1820 and 1825 Schwellgraben was installed. This is located 2.8 kilometers long, connects the Reschbach with the devil Klause.
For Woodtrift the dams (Klausen) were an important means to flood the logs into the valley. In addition to the built dams the banks were simultaneously fixed and applied channels. So also the Reschbach near the Czech border was expanded for Woodtrift in the 19th century. In the 1950s, the era of Woodtrift ended, and the many facilities of pasture lost their original function.
The Bavarian Forest National Park called for the preservation and maintenance of Reschbachklause. As a relic of a bygone forestry it now serves as a hiking destination and a time capsule. With the creation of dams an artificial pond was created by man. This offered many dragonflies a new habitat. The Common Blue Damselfly feels the Reschbachklause really well. Other species such as the bog ground beetles forfeited a large part of their natural habitat.

Germany? Before the beginning there was Ginnungagap, an empty space of nothingness, filled with pure creative power. (Sort of like the inside of my head.)And it ends with Ragnarok, the twilight of the Gods. In between is much fighting, betrayal and romance. Just as a good Godly story should be.Heroes have their own graveyard called Valhalla. Unfortunately we cannot show you a panorama of it at this time, nor of the lovely Valkyries who are its escort service.Hail Odin, wandering God wielding wisdom and wand! Hail Freya, hail Tyr, hail Thor!Odin made the many lakes and the fish in them. In his traverses across the lands he caused there to be the Mulheim Bridge in Cologne, as did he make the Mercury fountain, Mercury being of his nature.But it is to the mighty Thor that the Hammering Man gives service.Between the time of the Nordic old ones and that of modern Frankfort there may have been a T.Rex or two on the scene. At least some mastodons for sure came through for lunch, then fell into tar pits to become fossils for us to find.And there we must leave you, O my most pure and holy children.Text by Steve Smith.
