The evenings at their mouth

The Abens is a river in Upper and Lower Bavaria . It rises on the rubble between Dürnzhausen in the northwest and Sünzhausen in the southeast, both in the Pfaffenhofen an der Ilm district , and flows into the Danube after about 72 km at Eining in the Kelheim district .

course

In the upper part, the Abens flows through the Hallertau , a gentle hill country characterized by the cultivation of hops . From the source between Dürnzhausen and Sünzhausen, the route initially leads east or northeast and after a little more than a kilometer already crosses the border to the Freising district . As a result, the Abens passes the villages of Abens, Hirnkirchen, Seysdorf and Halsberg and then reaches the Au market in the Hallertau , where it swings north and runs largely parallel to the main road 301 to Abensberg ; in addition, from here the valley becomes wider.

The river then passes through the villages of Enzelhausen and Rudelzhausen before it reaches the border with the Kelheim district and thus Lower Bavaria. Past the villages of Puttenhausen, Aufhausen and Sandelzhausen , the route continues northwards to the small town of Mainburg . From here, the Abens flows further north in meanders , passing the villages of Lindkirchen , Unterwangenbach, Meilenhofen , Ratzenhofen and Elsendorf before it crosses under the Bundesautobahn 93 . It continues between the villages of Train and Sankt Johann and via Neukirchen and Staudach to the Siegenburg market , which the Abens touches to the west. Past Dürnhart, the river finally reaches Biburg with its Romanesque church , which is well worth seeing, and then passes the Frauenberg ( 391  m above sea level ) with the Baroque pilgrimage church of Allersdorf, which is also worth seeing .

Around here the valley opens into a wide plain that slopes gently to the west towards the Danube. The course of the river turns west at the level of the small town of Abensberg and passes the villages of Aunkofen , Schwaighausen and Heiligenstadt before reaching the health resort Bad Gögging , which belongs to the town of Neustadt an der Donau . West of Bad Gögging, about at the level of the Felbermühle campsite, the course of the river swings again to the north and then merges with the Ilm , which runs parallel to the Danube and is about the same size . Both rivers have an average of 3.2 m³ / s of water. The original confluence of the Abens with the Danube is likely to have been located here. In the course of artificial regulation measures in the 1920s, however, the estuary was relocated around three kilometers to the north and is now west of the village of Eining , where the foundations of Fort Abusina , a Roman military camp, can still be seen today. At the confluence with the Danube, the Abens has an average water flow of around 6.5 m³ / s due to the supply of the Ilm. The Danube ferry runs between Eining and Hienheim near the mouth .

Origin of name

The Eining fort took its Roman name Abusina from the nearby Abens . The origin of this river name is not clear. In 1950, Gerhard Rasch attempted an interpretation in the sense of “little river” in comparison to the Danube .

nature

On the last kilometers, the Abens flows through the Danube floodplains with the nature reserve Goldau near Neustadt between the rivers Abens, Danube , Ilm and Paar . Here live among other Blaukehlchen , Orioles and various orchid species. The area is also part of the Natura 2000 area and protected landscape area.
