Oelse (Oder-Spree)

The Ölse north of Oelsener mill

The Ölse is a river in Oder-Spree district and is part of the Natural Park Schlaubetal. The name Ölse or Ölse refers to the altsorbische ol'ša for alder, therefore it is a Erlenbach. In ancient records we find Osora 1336, in Wendish Wolscha on the Kishen 's cards she finds herself as Schneeberger river. A document of the city Beeskow they called in 1344 as daz Vliez zer Olsen.

Formation

The landscape of the Oelsetales originated in the Weichsel glaciation. This created the meltwater systems of Schlaube, Dorche, Ölse and Demnitz.

Course

The Ölse springs from the Möschensee for large Muckrow. The northern part of the lake is surrounded by wet meadows, through which the Ölse makes its way to the Chossewitzer lake. The Möschensee belongs together with the Krügersee and Rähdensee to a Fauna-Flora -Habitat. Here you'll find, among other otters and Large leuccorhinia their habitat.

To the east of Chossewitz over the Ölse reaches the blade pond. At its northeastern shore the blade mill was built around 1610. From here, the river flows in some ponds along and reaches the mill pond of Jankemühle. Today, the forest house Jankemühle is in a part of the former mill building. On her further way she flows through the mill pond of the mill and fulling mill on the south bank flows in the Oelsener lake.

At its northeastern shore, there where the Oelsener mill since 1406 has its place, it leaves the lake. At the mill, the river is piped over a distance of 80 to 100 meters. The Next River passes through wetlands and several small bodies of water east of Grunow over, then north of Schneeberg by Schneeberger meadows. Here it is about halfway between Schneeberg and Oegeln to Oegelfließ before it flows into Beeskow in the Spree.

Between the catchment areas of Schlaube to the east and the west Ölse the main watershed between the basins of the Oder and Elbe and thus between Baltic and North Sea runs.
