The Amorsbach is a 8 km long creek in the Main-Tauber district in the northernmost part of Baden-Württemberg , with its main upper reaches , which after an eastern and then north-eastern course predominantly through the area and settlement area of the city of Külsheim in the area of the city of Wertheim from the left in the lower Tauber opens.
Surname
The Amorsbach has various names on its 8.0 km run. The uppermost course of the main line is called Bösenheckengraben after a gain name, up to the inclusion of the Breitenfeldgraben , then follows a section Ochsengraben to the edge of the center of Külsheim, then the brook through further Külsheim and then Külsheimer Bach is called, finally, here last part far Grenzbach to Wertheim, as Amorsbach flows into the Tauber.
In the local Tauber Franconian dialect, in which the word Bach generally has a female gender, the water is called the Talbach .
geography
course
The Amorsbach rises south of Külsheim - Steinbach on the eastern edge of the Great Forest near the L 508 to Külsheim- Steinfeld at about 390 m above sea level. NHN . It initially flows in an easterly direction towards Külsheim and takes on some streams on this route - the Breitfeldgraben , the Schmollertsgraben and the Schützengraben - which all arise in a similar location on the same edge of the forest and the last of which even exceeds it in length. This is where the L 509 comes to his side, which follows him on the middle slope almost to the mouth.
With the inclusion of the trench after about two fifths of its course on the outskirts of Külsheim, it turns on a north-east course, which it then maintains until the mouth. Still in the fountain rich town it runs the recently of two branches in the old town united Frankenbach from the right and his longest tributary Reute tufts digging from left further north to.
Here it already has a striking valley basin , which, after the confluence of Dorzengraben and Häckersbach on the left, turns into a wooded Kerbsohl valley. From this it flows after another two and a half kilometers, now lying more than 120 m below the right upper edge of the slope forest, from the left and southwest a good one and a half kilometers south of Wertheim - Bronnbach at about 155 m above sea level. NHN in an opposing loop of the forest valley of the lower Tauber just within the Wertheim city area in the Tauber .
Catchment area
The Amorsbach drains an area of 20.5 square kilometers in northern Baden-Wuerttemberg as the northeast to the lower Tauber , the natural area seen part of the Wertheimer plateau of sandstone Spessart is, most recently in Unterlauftal also the sub-natural space Lower Tauber .
The region is geologically shaped by the red sandstone . The higher source streams all arise west of Külsheim in a wide loess derivative layer on the Upper Buntsandstein , into which the stream enters in its valley, which only deepens from Külsheim to the northeast. Around where the forest begins to cover the bottom of the Unterlauftal, it changes to the middle red sandstone . It ends in an alluvial sediment band around the Tauber.
In the catchment area, however, there are also Triassic layers above the red sandstone. The greater heights on the right at the edge of the catchment area are all built up from the Lower Muschelkalk : from the elevation Am high Herrgottsberg ( 401.9 m above sea level ) south of the barracks in the Külsheimer west over the wide Taubenloch mountain forest , in which the ( 428.4 m above sea level) . NHN ) is the highest altitude in the catchment area, then over the Great Heidberg ( 405.2 m above sea level ) east of Külsheim to the Kapellen- or Stahlberg ( 377.4 m above sea level ) this higher layer stretches. And to the left of the lower reaches the ridge of the Schweizerberg (summit over 380 m above sea level ) to the northeast of the Red Rain homestead with its vineyards on the southeast slope is covered by a layered island of the lower shell limestone.
The highest watershed is as already mentioned on the southern border, where at the southeast corner short of Brehm Bach to Tauber further up in Tauberbischofsheim competes, the longest and highest part to the southwest corner but the west ongoing Katzenbach , who on there Erfa called Erf in drains the Main . Behind the northwestern border, the Schönertsbach drains like the Amorsbach to the northeast, a little further down from its mouth, now back into the Tauber, which also takes up the Maisenbach , which is largely collecting the runoff on the other side of the southeast border .
The catchment area lies almost entirely in the area and even the suburb of the small town of Külsheim , only on the last half kilometer of the lower reaches the middle town of Wertheim on the left . The only place on the run is Külsheim itself, in the catchment area the only other settlement area is a part of the Red Rain Aussiedlerhof group.

Origin of the Amorsbach at about 329 m above sea level. NHN in a retention basin in Külsheim opposite the junction of the L 504 to Tauberbischofsheim from the L 509 running in the valley, where the right Ochsengraben and the left trenches , both coming from the west, converge; the unified brook is initially and for the greater part of its course called Külsheimer Bach . He immediately turned to the northeast course, which he maintained up to the mouth.

Tauber river system
nature and landscape
The Amorsbach drains mostly open corridors, most of which are under the plow. In addition, there is forest in the southeast corner of the catchment area in the large Taubenloch forest area , in the Upper Forest , at the edge of which the source streams arise, and Unterlauftal, where the far-reaching forest area Schönert borders on the left.
The upper reaches of the Amorsbach are mostly ditches, which run alongside dirt roads and fields with a thin and exposed row of trees as an accompaniment. In the northern part of Külsheim, a gallery begins to accompany the now more naturally flowing Amorsbach. From here on the valley basin is more pronounced and rows of trees run partly one above the other on the slope. Dorzengraben and hackers trench then lead from short underflow sound with partial or total forestation, the last inflow Schlangengraben traverses over its entire flow line its steep torn forest talc compacts. The small section of the Wertheim area on the left at the bottom run is in the Wertheim nature reserve .
