On the 8th of October 2009 Bishop July started the Evangelical Lutheran Church species protection project by planting a Wild Service Tree and hanging a roosting box for a Common Noctule bat.

Alongside the Wild Service Tree and the Common Noctule bat, the Lutheran church has adopted the Scarce and Dusky large blue butterfly, as part of the "Biological Variety/111 species" action plan launched by the State of Baden-W?rttemberg.

Naturnaher Pfarrgarten (nature-friendly parish garden) is a short leaflet about how to protect nature in the parish garden.
