The Bełk (Czech Bečva , German Belk ) is a left tributary of the Oder in the Czech Republic and Poland.
course
The Bečva rises south of the village Vřesina in the Hultschiner Ländchen in Grund Vodní důl on the edge of the Bor forest ( pine forest ). It first flows northeast through Vřesina and then turns east. Via Karlovec and Hať the stream reaches the border with Poland, where it is called Bełk . There are the villages Rudyszwałd ( Ruderswald ) and Zabełków ( Zabelkau ) along its course . The stream is bridged between the two by the Kędzierzyn-Koźle – Chałupki – Bohumín railway. On its lower reaches, the Bełk turns sharply northwards behind Zabełków. After 8.7 kilometers of the Bełk between Novy Dwór Kopytov and opens at the Polish-Czech limit against the Olsazipfel 300 meters above the Olsamündung in the OR.
history
After the division of Silesia in 1742, the entire stream belonged to Prussian Silesia . In 1923, after the Hultschiner land was ceded, the border was drawn between Hať and Rudyszwałd. This border was abolished after the Munich Agreement in 1938 and restored in 1945.
