Beskrivelse

When you walk in Spraglehall you will experience flower-rich meadows, beech forests and hazel groves. The nature reserve is old pasture land from a long time ago. The area is still grazed. Spraglehall's highest point is 25 meters above sea level and from the top there is a nice view of Listerlandet and the Baltic Sea. There are memories of the stonemasonry period.
Spraglehall is one of Listerlandet's remaining mountains with varied nature with grazed grasslands, forests and rocky outcrops. The area, located by the sea near the community of Krokås, is easy to get to.

Memories from the ice age

Listerlandet has a number of so-called remnant mountains of varying heights. The mountain itself consists of coarse eye granite of the Karlshamn type, while the surrounding bedrock consists of smoothly eroded chalk limestone.

During the last ice age, the residual mountains were given their final shape by grinding the rock core. Most of the highest parts consist of flat, extensive outcrops. The outcrops contain ice grooves that run in the direction of the ice sheet, north-northeast - south-southwest.

The side facing the ice movement is called the impact side. The impact side was smoothed as the ice slid over it. On the opposite side, the leeward side, moraine material accumulated. Such a formation is called a drumlin and is of great geological interest.

Parts of Spraglehall in Berlin

For a few years in the 1910s and 20s, there was a thriving stone industry here. Paving stones and kerbstones were cut for export to Germany. It was a Danish company that was the exporter. A massive jetty was built to enable the stone to be shipped out by ship.

Remains of old rails can still be seen today, both at Massa brygge and up in the quarry. Despite two world wars, many streets in German cities, including Hamburg and Berlin, are still lined with stone from Spraglehall. Many stonemasons in Listerlandet worked at Spraglehall quarry.
