The Glasebach is a right tributary of the Selke in the Lower Harz, Saxony- Anhalt.

Course

The creek rises to about 450 meters east of lazy puddle. After flowing through the two remaining storage ponds of three loyal neighbors of the creek flows north through agriculturally developed area and flows some 520 meters further to the northeast. After about 800 meters opens an apparently unnamed creek at 417.2 meters on the left into the Glasebach, which continues to flow north-northeast. More about 400 meters down stream opens out also well nameless creek on the left into the Glasebach. The currently running in gentle arcs creek now flows meandering at the foot of Mount Pfaff only in the north, then towards east-northeast along. 410 meters after the last tributary flows at the foot of a Könnickenbergs springing and apparently unnamed creek, on the right side in the Glasebach.

A water drainage gallery of the pit Pfennigturm water introduced into Glasebachtal where it was dammed in Glasebacher pond.

This inflow was from 1716 to 1752, the second tributary of Glasebacher pond, at the broken dam of Glasebach shortly it winds past. The stream continues to flow toward the northeast, has at the foot of Eichberg's only a 150 -meter-long right-hand tributary. The Glasebach winds in the lower reaches through grasslands before the right side near the Bärlochsmühle at Strassberg to open after about 3.7 km in the Selke. The intersection occurs at flow kilometer 54.6 of the Selke.

Etymology

The name of the water body is made of brook - as an appellative and the modifier glass. Certification for glass industry at Strassberg are not available.

Therefore, likely glass, derived from the Old High German or Middle High German glass, refer to the luster and brightness of the water - a common variation on naming streams.
