Holzlar

Holzlar Is an enclosed settlement in Bonn's district Beuel, east of the Rhine and north of the Siebengebirge in Germany.

About 50 years later the brothers Leopold and Abraham Bleibtreu bought properties in Holzlar-Kohlkaul und Holzlar Gielgen and began quarrying brown coal and alum.

Today there are mainly housing estates of higher standard in Roleber, Gielgen, Heidebergen and Holzlar.

It is assumed that the mill already existed in companion with a Burghof, which was given to Wilhelm von Nesselrode in 1502 and was destroyed during the war in the 16th century.

It has a size of 330 square meters and about 50 graves and is a historic preservation, because it is one of the oldest Protestant cemetery in the Rhineland.

The landscape of Holzlar in the South and East is dominated by forest, brooks, lakes and ponds.

There are a lot of hiking trails, therefore the Ennert is a popular recreational area in the region of Bonn.

Rare species like the fire salamander, the Coronella austriaca, the great spotted woodpecker and the Anguis fragilis live in the forest or in the brooks and ponds.
