The Aue ( pronunciation ? / I ) is a 31.5 kilometer long river in the Lower Saxony district of Stade in Germany . Audio file / audio sample

geography

The floodplain rises near Ahrensmoor-Nord on the edge of a raised bog in the municipality of Ahlerstedt and flows through the villages

to Horneburg . Here it flows together with the Landwetter , changes its name to Lühe and flows into the Elbe after another 12.7 km .

Flood

In August 2002, a flood caused by prolonged and heavy rainfall in the river's catchment area broke the dikes in Horneburg and caused considerable property damage there. Horneburg reacted to the threat of further floods with a stronger quay wall in the town center and a dike renovation.
