Ebenso sollte es für die spätere Betreuungsperson gut erreichbar und sich somit geographisch nicht nördlicher als Bonn sowie nicht südlicher als Neuwied befinden. Eine Liste möglicher Institutionen ist auf der Homepage unserer Schule hinterlegt. Dort finden Sie im Downloadbereich zum Sozialpraktikum auch alle anderen Informationen, die Sie bzw. Ihre Kinder vor, während und nach dem Praktikum benötigen, z.B. Hinweise zum Erstellen eines Praktikumsberichtes, die Liste der Betreuungslehrer usw.

Ver. 10 62–81 2019 Erstnachweis von Equisetum ×meridionale (E. ramosissimum × E. variegatum, Equisetaceae) für Nordrhein-Westfalen und weitere bemerkenswerte Vorkommen von Schachtelhalmen in einem stillgelegten * Steinbruch bei Hagen MARCUS LUBIENSKI, CHRISTOPH GERBERSMANN & DARIO WOLBECK Kurzfassung Es wird über den Erstnachweis der sehr seltenen Schachtelhalmhybride Equisetum ×meridionale (E. ramosis- simum × E. variegatum) für Nordrhein-Westfalen in einem ehemaligen Kalksteinbruch bei Hagen berichtet. Die Verbreitung der Hybride für Deutschland wird anhand einer Verbreitungskarte illustriert. Der Steinbruch beher- bergt mit u. a. E. variegatum und E. ×moorei darüber hinaus weitere für das Bundesland sehr bemerkenswerte Equisetum-Sippen. Diese werden vorgestellt und in Hinblick auf ihre Ansiedlung und Verbreitung diskutiert. Alle aus NRW bekannten Vertreter der Untergattung Hippochaete werden in einer Merkmalstabelle gegenübergestellt. Abstract: First record of Equisetum ×meridionale (E. ramosissimum × E. variegatum, Equisetaceae) for North Rhine-Westphalia (Germany) and other remarkable occurrences of horsetails in an abandoned quarry near Hagen. The present paper reports on the first record of the very rare horsetail hybrid Equisetum ×meridionale (E. ramo- sissimum × E. variegatum) in North Rhine-Westphalia in an abandoned limestone quarry near Hagen. The distribution of the hybrid in Germany is illustrated on a distribution map. Additionally the quarry harbours very remarkable Equisetum taxa for the federal state (e.g. E. variegatum and E. ×moorei), which are discussed with respect to their establishment and distribution. All taxa within the subgenus Hippochaete known in NRW are compared in a character table. 1 Einleitung Die Schachtelhalmflora Nordrhein-Westfalens (Equisetaceae) umfasste bis vor Kurzem sechs Arten der Untergattung Equisetum (E. arvense L., E.

  • Castles and Palaces on the Romantic Rhine
    Castles and Palaces on the Romantic Rhine Legendary! On the romantic Rhine, there is a castle landscape which is unique in its density and variety. Between Bingen and Rüdesheim in the south and the Siebengebirge (Seven Hills) in the north, mediaeval knights’ castles, pretty Baroque palaces and impressive fortifi cations unite to make up a unique cultural landscape. The va- riety of the buildings from various epochs is impressive: in this respect, some castles served to levy customs and were therefore important income sources for those in power. Other buildings on the other hand were constructed as safeguards against neighbouring archbishoprics or electorates and yet others fulfi lled purely representative functions. How the scores of castles and palaces on the romantic Rhine appear today could also hardly be more varied. Some of them have remained preserved over the centuries through elaborate restoration and accommodate restaurants, hotels or museums. Others radiate the mystic charm of (almost) crumbled ruins and one can only divine how many wars and revolts they have seen come and go. The count- less palaces, castles and ruins can be ideally experienced on foot, by bike or by ship on the Rhine and in the secondary valleys of the Rhine valley. The historical showpieces and weathered monuments are often linked by hiking paths. And it’s all the same whether they’re in ruined or restored condition: adventurous legends, often based on true facts, are entwined around many of the historical walls... it’s simply legendary! www.romantischer-rhein.de Mäuseturm (Mouse Tower), Bingen Klopp Castle, Bingen The Mouse Tower in Binger Loch is located on an inacces- Klopp Castle, founded in the middle of the 13th century by sible island and is, next to Pfalzgrafenstein Castle, the only the Archbishop of Mainz, Siegfried III, in Bingen, secured the defence tower and watch tower in the middle of the Rhine.

If a man were to be raised in a balloon high enough above the continent of Europe to survey the whole of it at one view, he would see the land gradually rising from the borders of the sea on every side, towards a portion near the centre, where he would behold a vast region of mountainous country, with torrents of water running down the slopes and through the valleys of it, while the summits were tipped with perpetual snow. The central part of this mass of mountains forms what is called Switzerland, the eastern part is the Tyrol, and the western Savoy. But though the men who live on these mountains have thus made three countries out of them, the whole region is in nature one. It constitutes one mighty mass of mountainous land, which is lifted up so high into the air that all the summits rise into[Pg 14] the regions of intense and perpetual cold, and so condense continually, from the atmosphere, inexhaustible quantities of rain and snow.
