Dammbach (Bühler)
Dammbachtal with grassy slope to the right and forest Brettheim left, just after the inlet of Hettensbachs.
The dam creek is a creek district of Schwäbisch Hall in northeastern Baden -Württemberg of four kilometers in length, which flows south from Bühlertann from the right in the Buhler.
Name
The name Bach dam is probably arose from Tanbach and to be linked more with the fir castle together on the left spur as with the word dam.
Geography
Source and course
The dam creek rises about half a kilometer north of Bühlertann - Hettensberg little west of the county road 2637 Hettensberg - Frankenhardt - Hinteruhlberg in the beginning Quickblade to about 490 m above sea level according to the official map. NHN. Their valley cutting continues as a shallow groove on the plateau of the Ellwanger Berge between the two hamlets of a few hundred meters to the northeast continued to across the southwest corner of the extensive forest shepherd. Approximately 502 m above sea NHN is. Here, in the east of the K 2637 can be found in nature nor for about another 200 meters a trained creek bed, which also often leads summer water and is accompanied in the lower part of wood. In the steep and wooded Quick blade, a deep marl ravine, the river flows - unless he, as often in summer, is just dry here - to the west and occurs after about 600 meters to about 425 m above sea level. NHN over on the already shallow lower slope in the open hallway. In this very wide valley are from here to the end of almost only meadows and pastures. After a good kilometer reached him about 412 m above sea level. NHN left the slightly longer Hettensbach. After the dam creek flows for about another kilometer legally valid at the left edge of the valley, to its left bank enters the hillside forest of Brettheim. Soon the creek turns slowly its course to the southwest, after about 1.7 kilometers him flows from the Brettheim a shorter Bach. From right ends soon after a wide, brook loose side valley of western cousin yards down with but often quite damp meadows. Two and a half miles below its source crosses a bridge its course over which a dirt road from Bühlertann - Halden from the top left of the valley accompanying mountain tongue leads to the cousin yards on the right middle ridge. On the right slope here begins a heathen land, practice on the motocross rider riding her arts. Right after that joins from the left slope Bach from the trough, further down the valley of the stream is noticeably straighter, a parallel drainage ditch draws on wet floodplain for a while beside him. Meanwhile, the fir castle is visible on the spur of the left ridge and after another dirt road across it passes under the dam creek in a tube which the dam heaped route of the main road in 1060 Bühlertann - Fronrot who opposed the dam creek climbs here the platforms on the Tannenberg heap. After the dam creek in the Bühlertalaue occurs and is guided in a straight, 300 -meter-long trench to the north- west to the Bühler, in which he altitude of about 371 m. NHN and four kilometers below its source discharges from the left.
Catchment area
The dam river has a catchment area of 5.3 square kilometers. It is bordered on the north by that of the parallel Buhler inflow nettle creek, in the east on the plateau to Hettensberg competes the south to the upper kettle pulling Blind Red, in the south of the watershed runs along the ridge of the fir castle to also parallel Buhler inflow Avenbach. Beyond the watershed in southwest and northwest, there are at most smaller flume, artificial drainage ditches or verdolte feeds for Buhler.
A large part of the catchment area, a total of over 3.5 square kilometers, is recognized since 1983 as a conservation area Dammbachtal with adjacent ridges.
Geology
The course of the dam Bach begins at the escarpment edge of the pebble sandstone, which used to be a small, now backfilled quarry just north of the source testified. The creek runs quite fast down the sequence of layers to Gipskeuper ( grave field formation ), in which lies the greater part of the stream. At the upper reaches there on the left flank some Verebnungsstufen over the Corbula Bank of Gipskeuper or Estherienschichten, which are mostly used for agricultural purposes. In the upper wooded part of said brook loose valley which feeds from the right on the middle reaches, is a series of sinkholes. A larger plateau right of the lower reaches, district Steinäcker, is also located on the Corbula bank. About the north-east in the direction of subsequent cousin district courts mowing the land rises steadily to the Red Sandstone, which occupies itself on the ridge to the cousin courtyards large areas which are under the plow.
Inflows
Origin of the dam Bach in the upper Quickblade to about 490 m above sea level. NHN.
- Hettensbach, from left, 1.3 km away. Dewatered to about 490 m above sea level. NHN the fire water pond in the center of Hettensberg.
- Bach from the Brettheim, from left, at 0.3 km
- Bach from the trough, from left to below 385 m above sea level. NHN, 0.4 km
- Two drainage ditches alongside roads in the Bühlertalaue, from left, 0.1 and 0.2 km
Mouth of the dam Bach south of Bühlertann at the level of 371 m above sea. NHN from the right and finally south-east in the north -withdrawing Buhler. The stream here is 4.0 km long and has a catchment area of approximately 5.3 square kilometers.
Towns
The Dammbachtal is uninhabited. The inflow Hettensbach arises in the hamlet Hettensberg as flowing from small fire water pond in the center. From the hamlet Fronrot alone the district drained in the northwest of the dam creek. Doing so will cause only the cousin yards on the middle reaches on the right ridge, the detached property Tannenberg heaps on the platforms of the road in 1060 and possibly the fir castle itself on the rocky spur on the left in the catchment.
Bach and catchment area includes a total of the municipality Bühlertann, except for a small area at its northeastern tip to Hinteruhlberg, which lies like this hamlet itself to the community district of Frankenhardt. All other settlements mentioned belong to Bühlertann.
