Kulturreservatet Gunnebos öppna diken - en undersökning med avstamp i kulturhistorisk värdering och biologisk mångfald
Abstract
This essay was written with the knowledge that Gunnebo’s landscape management plan is in
need of revision, mainly to adapt its maintenance to new research and updated national
environmental goals. The cultural reserve’s ditches are mentioned in passing in the care plan
but there is no overall or collective documentation of the ditches structure or origin. Adding
Gunnebo's ditches to a section in the upcoming revision of the management plan would
contribute to benefiting biodiversity and, in some areas, also increase the authenticity of the
historical landscape.
In a cultural reserve like Gunnebo, with maintenance in mind, there are many aspects to take
into account and different values to promote. By promoting a certain value, one may neglect
another. It is therefore important to identify the area's various values and discuss a prioritization
order based upon these. In the results of the study, various values and management effects have
been discussed, mainly with cultural heritage and biodiversity in focus, but also with
functionality and reasonable efforts in mind. The reasoning is based on historical and geological
maps that can tell a lot about the area's historical land use and contemporary soil dampness and
ecology.
