Klützer forest

The Klützer place was almost completely forested in the Middle Ages. The Klützer forest area (lat. Clutse nemus ) will be described in its expansion today through the Wendish place names of the peninsula. The Emperor Barbarossa secured the emerging Hanseatic city of Lübeck in the Barbarossa privilege of the year 1188 the use of wood this forest area for timber as Feuerungsholz in so far as it was needed for Lübeck own needs, not as a commodity. This privilege was confirmed to Lübeck in 1202 by King Valdemar II of Denmark as protector of the city. Background was in each case that the clearing of the forest in Klützer Klützer angle agricultural settlement area should be obtained in order to increase the revenue from the tax on tithing. This is also confirmed by an agreement dated July 8, 1222 between the Ratzeburg Bishop Henry I. and the Mecklenburg princes Henry I. Borwin. The extension of the former forest area can therefore be seen also on the incurred in the course of clearing new German settlement names ending usually on - hagen. So in the area of the former Klützer forest arose the four parishes or parishes Damshagen, Elmenhorst, Kalkhorst and Klutz, all of which are also mentioned in Ratzeburg tithe register of the year 1230, because the Klützer angle belonged to the Reformation to the diocese of Ratzeburg and the Monastery Rehna out for this was managed. The high ground credit led to an almost complete deforestation of Klützer angle. Last remaining and by far the largest enclosed forest area of ​​the Klützer angle is east of the Kalkhorst Lenorenwald, which was not suitable with its mainly swampy and damp locations for conversion into agricultural land. Located just south of the High Schoenberg at Klutz and is known for two rather unusual trees: totally of a different type are two major North American redwoods in the forest and set beside barrows and Wendish ramparts something of a landmark dar. The Lenorenwald is today the conservation area, of which are 546 hectares designated as conservation area.
