Road bridge over the Nieme at Löwenhagen

The Nieme is a 12.38 km long, right or eastern tributary of the Weser in Lower Saxony town of the district of Göttingen ( Germany ).

Course

The stream is created on the eastern slopes of the Bramwaldes above the village Varlosen (part of Niemetal ) by the confluence of the three rivers source Wesperke, Buirke and Valenke. Their sources are located northeast of the community Bühren; slightly southwest of Bühren is the origin of Schede, another and somewhat more southern tributary of the Weser.

The running exclusively in the nature reserve Munden Nieme flows - to flow through without Bühren - initially east of Bramwalds northeast to flow through direction Varlosen (part of Niemetal ) the village eastward. After that, from the west of Ellershausen (part of Niemetal ) opens an upcoming Vöhre. The Nieme runs on past Imbsen (part of Niemetal ), after which it bends to the west and by Löwenhagen (part of Niemetal ) flows. Then it cuts about to the northwest flowing the Bramwald, being tangent to the nature reserve Totenberg south location.

Finally, the Nieme Bursfelde reached ( the northernmost district of Hann. Munden ), where they a few hundred meters after passing under the main road 561, which connects Bursfelde in the south with Oedelsheim ( district of the North Hessian municipality of Upper Weser ) in the north with each other, in the current flowing to the North Sea Weser flows, which forms a portion of the Hessian- Lower Saxon border here. Due to a project for the restoration Niememündung holds here again in about the course of one who has passed about 200 years ago.
