The biotope covers the area of the pond and the stretch of forest located next to the pond. It is protected with the Decree on the Declaration of Natural Monuments. In the 19th century, the Count of Windischgrätz enclosed a part of Partovec with a fence and opened a stag park. In the vicinity of the pond is an old watering hole where local transporters used to come to provide water for their horses.
