The '''Jennetal''' (the suffix -''tal'' means ''dale'') is a valley cut in the [Schönberg](/source/Sch%C3%B6nberg_(Ebringen)) mountain and also the name of a nature reserve, where it's located.

==Location==
The Jennetal is located on the southwestern slope of the Schönberg, directly above [Ebringen](/source/Ebringen), at an altitude of about 1,100-1,475 [ft](/source/foot_(unit)) (340-450 [m](/source/meter)) [above sea level](/source/above_sea_level).<ref name="LUBW">Landesanstalt für Umwelt, Messungen und Naturschutz Baden-Württemberg: [https://www2.lubw.baden-wuerttemberg.de/public/abt2/dokablage/oac_12/wuerdigung/3/3003.htm Jennetal]</ref>

==History==
===Sumser's Garden===
In 1931 [Erwin Sumser](/source/Erwin_Sumser) purchased several lots of land in the Jennetal which he himself converted into a nature reserve. Upon his initiative, this nature reserve of originally 0,7095 [ha](/source/hectare) became an officially protected area in 1937.<ref name="LUBW"/> In 1960 he sold this area, which is commonly called Sumser's Garden ({{langx|de|Sumsergarten}}), along with his other private nature reserves on the [Baar](/source/Baar_(region)), to the [federal state](/source/states_of_Germany) of [Baden-Württemberg](/source/Baden-W%C3%BCrttemberg).

===Extension of the area===
In 1996 the nature reserve Jennetal was extended to nearly 23 ha.<ref>Landesanstalt für Umwelt, Messungen und Naturschutz Baden-Württemberg: [http://www.fachdokumente.lubw.baden-wuerttemberg.de/servlet/is/50166/in03_20065.html?COMMAND=DisplayBericht&FIS=200&OBJECT=50166&MODE=BER&RIGHTMENU=null Naturschutzgebiet Jennetal] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141220181255/http://www.fachdokumente.lubw.baden-wuerttemberg.de/servlet/is/50166/in03_20065.html?COMMAND=DisplayBericht&FIS=200&OBJECT=50166&MODE=BER&RIGHTMENU=null |date=2014-12-20 }}</ref>
