Has anyone ever heard of a duck decoy? What might sound like a playful trick is actually a piece of fascinating history, especially here at the Kampener Vogelkoje. Right in front of us lies a place where, centuries ago, people cleverly captured ducks. Established in 1767, the Kampener Vogelkoje wasn’t just some small-scale operation. This was big business! For almost 170 years, it flourished, and it’s estimated that nearly 700,000 ducks were caught here. Imagine that – a time when the skies above Kampener Vogelkoje would have been filled with the sights and sounds of these birds. The Kampener Vogelkoje is a testament to a bygone era, a time when people lived closely intertwined with nature, for better or worse. Today, this ten-hectare site has transformed into a peaceful nature reserve, a sanctuary where numerous species of waterfowl find refuge. As you wander the grounds, take a moment to envision the intricate system of ponds and channels that once lured ducks to their fate. It’s a reminder that history can be found in the most unexpected places, whispering tales of ingenuity, change, and the enduring power of nature.
