Südaue

BW

The Südaue is a 16 km-long right tributary of the Westaue in the Region of Hannover in Lower Saxony north of the Deister.

Course

To the east of the village Eckerde at Barsinghausen am Deister the Südaue sets the Levester creek at the confluence of the creek floor at 60 m above sea level. NN continued. The Südaue flows in a northwesterly direction through Großgoltern, crosses under the highway 65, flows through Nordgoltern and Groß Munzel, crosses under the Federal Highway 2, continues through Kolenfeld, passes under the Midland Canal and the railway line Hannover- Minden. Before she passes under the highway 442 in Haster forest, they are a part of their water from the Old Südaue. North of the Haster forest and east of Bokeloh at Wunstorf opens the Südaue in the Westaue at an altitude of 50 m above sea level ( The correctness of this elevation is currently under review. Cf. discussion March 2, 2014 ).

The Südaue only carries water from the area of ​​the northern Deister.

Old branch Südaue

It is to the original course of the river, the first passing through the downtown Wunstorf in the course and ( thus based = on the course of Westaue below Wunstorf ) gives off its waters in Blumenau in the Westaue. This original course has been withdrawn by the construction of a channel-like connection to Westaue ( opening out above Wunstorf ) in the course of extensive Aueregulierung a major portion of its water masses. Together with other hydraulic engineering measures the risk of early frequent floods in downtown Wunstorf was hereby banned.
