The realm forest around Nuremberg is the green lung of the population centre.

Exactly the same as the old part of town by the Pegnitz into the Lorenzer old part of town (with the Lorenz church) and into the Sebalder old part of town (with the Sebalduskirche) is divided, is also the realm forest divided into Lorenzer realm forest (southern the Pegnitz) and Sebalder realm forest (northern the Pegnitz). The realm forest the Lorenzer realm forest following forest area can also add themselves by approx. 10,000 hectars of size. This area reaching in the south up to the Rothsee is called southern realm forest.

The term of the of realm forest stood historically for the forest properties of the free realm city Nuremberg. The total area of the Sebalder and Lorenzer of realm forest covered at the beginning 19. Century still approx. 32,000 hectars and decreased/went back until today by clearing and use as development land on approx. 25,000 hectars.

The realm forest forms a part of the sand axle Franconia.

Fauna and Flora

Dominating the resinous woods are Kiefer and spruce. On average over the entire realm forest the resinous woods lie with scarcely 81 per cent, whereby the southern realm forest with 89 per cent lies here more highly than Sebalder and Lorenzer. Also the average spreading of the Kiefer (62 per cent) opposite the spruce (19 per cent) here by the southern realm forest distorted, in that the Kiefer is far more strongly represented (see BRUNNER, P. 182). The spreading of the Kiefer with the bald trunks the realm forest owes also plug reading forest to the surnames.

This allocation is not natural, but agitates of the intensive management. Thus after before the intervention of humans oak and Kiefer stood for an investigation in the area of the realm forest in an almost balanced Ott Eschke: Poll-analytic investigations in the area of the of realm forest. 1952.Doch already in 14. and 15. Century seems to have been over-used the forest by wood withdrawal. So the Lorenzer realm forest 1385 and the Sebalder had to be protected 1465 by a spell mile against further plundering. G.

An afforestation became since Peter Stromer in the middle 14. Century always again operated. However this took place to much smaller extent than the withdrawal (a 200prozentige calls excessive use), so that during transition of the city Nuremberg could not be spoken including their forest to the Kingdom of Bavaria no more of a closed forest area. The royal-Bavarian forest administration made thereafter wide afforestations, used however just like for centuries usually fast-growing Kiefer and spruce trees and created thereby far Monokulturen.

These beneficiaries the spreading of parasits and led to the two largest disasters in the realm forest. After in the decades before the damage intervals had shortened already, the years brought a loss of approximately 5000 hectars to 1836-40 by Kieferneule as well as different tension adjusters and cranks. The massive Vermehrung of the Kiefernspanners 1893 1894 fell approximately a third of the trees its crawler-type vehicles to the victim.

In order, a majority of the of realm forest was explained to the land consumption also the recent time an end to ready on 1 August 1979 than first forest Bayerns as the spell forest.

With the realm forest program 1986-2003 by new planting from hardwood the forest should be converted into a naturenear mixed woodland. In this period 20 million deciduous trees on a surface of 4400 hectars in the realm forest were planted. Together with an approximately likewise-large surface, which were converted by regular spare planting, thus a surface portion should be reached from 20 to 25 per cent mixed woodland.
