The Šporka , also Sporka (German Rohnbach , also Ronbach or Sporkabach ) is a right tributary of the Ploučnice in the Czech Republic .
course
The Šporka rises west of Jedličná on the south-eastern slope of the Medvědí hůrka ( bear trap , 645 m) in the Lusatian Mountains . Its upper course leads at the western foot of the Klíč ( Kleis , 760 m) through Polevsko , Arnultovice and Nový Bor to the southeast. There the brook reaches the Zákupská pahorkatina ( Reichstadt hill country ) belonging to the Ralská pahorkatina ( Rollberg hill country ), takes a south-westerly direction and flows north of the Chotovický vrch (498 m) and the Milberk (405 m) to Skalice u České Lípy , where it turns left the Šporka of Skalický vrch ( Langenauer Berg , 484 m) rises. At the lower end of the village of Skalice u České Lípy, the Šporka turns west at the Skalice game reserve and meanders past Svobodná Ves. The stream then takes again, past Manušice and Častolovice, again in a south-easterly direction, then in a southerly direction at Lada. At the Sídliště Lada housing estate belonging to Česká Lípa , the stream turns north-west and reaches Horní Libchava . There it flows around the Vinný vrch (302 m) with the remains of the Klinštejn castle and heads south on the western outskirts of Česká Lípa. Its lower course leads past Horní Libchava Castle and Dubový vrch (297 m) through Dolní Libchava and past Česká Lípa-Holý vrch. At the southwestern foot of the Holý vrch (301 m), the Šporka flows into the Ploučnice opposite Dubice .
The stream in Nový Bor and Skalice u České Lípy is heavily regulated.

particularities
- North of Manušice, a ditch has been derived from the Šporka on the right-hand side since the 16th century, which feeds the Manušické rybníky and later flows back into the Šporka. The pond was first mentioned in 1575. In 2012 the seven ponds (Velký Široký rybník, Malý Široký rybník, Horní manušický rybník, Prostřední manušický rybník, Dolní manušický rybník, Napajedlo; the seventh is anonymous) placed under protection as a natural monument. The PP Manušické rybníky has an area of 19.92 ha.
- The wetland , northwest of Česká Lípa-Sídliště Sever between the Česká Lípa-Nový Bor railway line and the Šporka, was also protected as a natural monument in 2012. The PP Mokřad v nivě Šporky covers an area of 20.3 hectares and serves to protect the fire-bellied toad .
- Remains of the castle Klinštejn ( Klingenstein ) on the Vinný vrch in Horni Libchava. On the hill surrounded on three sides by the Šporka, a wooden castle was built at the transition from the 13th to the 14th century, which probably belonged to Záviš von Stružnice of the Ronow family. His descendants had the castle expanded as their seat at the beginning of the 14th century and gave themselves the title of Klingenstein . The remains of the castle, which was abandoned at the end of the 14th century, have been protected as a cultural monument since 1958.
- Horní Libchava Castle, it was built in 1574 for Heinrich von Wartenberg and belonged to the Order of Malta from the middle of the 17th century until 1926 . The current owner is the municipality of Horní Libchava, which has the dilapidated building repaired.
