We study the spontaneous breaking of diffeomorphism invariance using the proper-time non-perturbative flow equation in quantum gravity. In particular, we analyze the structure of the UV critical manifold of conformally reduced Einstein-Hilbert theory and observe the occurrence of a non-trivial minimum for the conformal factor at Planckian energies. We argue that our result can be interpreted as the occurrence of a dynamically generated minimal length in quantum gravity.
