Description
Böda vicarage is one of Öland's finest oak groves. Here you walk among stately old oaks with rough trunks and wide tree crowns. There are few environments with old oaks left in Sweden today. Böda Prästgård is therefore an invaluable sanctuary for species that live in and on old oaks!
Triss in valuable nature
The nature reserve is divided into three areas. Most of the giant oaks are in the pasture west of the road, but some are also in the northern area. The northern and southern parts also have deciduous and swamp forests, where large alders are surrounded by ivy. Here you can see many exciting flowers, such as the fragrant ramson. The same applies to the dry meadow inside the old ramparts of the fort, where, among other things, field bindweed grows.
Species-rich
If insects and lichens could talk, they would praise the old oaks of Böda vicarage! The decaying wood and rough bark of the oaks offer nooks and crannies that are perfect for these organisms. For several of the nature reserve's unusual species, the oaks must also be open to the sun.
Rare rams
The leatherback beetle is one of the rarities of the nature reserve. If you smell the scent of dried plums by an old oak tree, there is a leatherback beetle nearby, inside or outside the tree. The best chance of seeing this 3 cm beetle is on sunny late summer days, when it crawls around on the bark. You'll have to be lucky though, as it doesn't show itself very often!
Remains from the past
Böda Skans was probably built in the 16th century, with the aim of protecting the then existing harbor in Böda. The rampart was star-shaped with earth ramparts and moats. Over time, nature has taken over the old defense facility. Hazel, wild apple and oak trees grow on and around the ramparts, partially concealing the old remains.
