Conservation project
Eifel brown trout
and pearl mussel
Spawning & Fertalisation
Every December we organize the spawning of the farmed trout in the Litzer pond.
Hatchery
In our hatchery, the fertilized eggs are taken care of until hatching and the trout larvae are fed to the brood
Caring for wildlife
Not all offspring are involved in the pearl mussel projects, some of them serve to preserve the game populations.
Flussperlmuschel
Muschelglochidien kommen von unseren Projekpartner - die Infektion wird meistens im August vorgenommen.
Breeding station
The pond system
"In the Litzer"
Home of the conservation project
The facility has been the heart of trout breeding since 1991, and has been supervised by the Prüm 1967 eV fishing association, especially for the species protection project planned and built by the state of Rhineland-Pfalz.
The modernization of the plant has been in progress since 2016 and will adapt the location to the new environmental conditions.
