The Kirdorfer Feld is a combined nature and landscape conservation area.
The approximately 133-hectare Kirdorfer Feld is located north-east of the Bad Homburg district of Kirdorf. Almost the entire open land area, with the exception of the orchard, the "Lazarius" allotment garden area and the burial gardens to the south, was designated as a landscape and nature conservation area by decree on October 17, 1996. The ecologically particularly valuable wetlands enjoy protection as nature conservation areas, while the remaining areas were designated as landscape conservation areas. The Kirdorfer Feld is characterized by its species-rich meadow communities, which have developed in a historical cultural landscape. The area is of particular value due to the great diversity of locations, structures and uses. The high proportion of orchards on the slopes and the wet meadows with their fallow land, small watercourses and springs are the characteristic elements of the area that shape the landscape. As the meadow communities in the Kirdorfer Feld are of supra-regional importance, the Kirdorfer Feld has also been designated as a flora-fauna-habitat area (FFH area) under the Natura 2000 regulation of the state of Hesse.
