The Briller Bach is a 3.48 kilometer long brook in the Wuppertal districts of Elberfeld-West and Uellendahl-Katernberg . The brook, which is a tributary of the Wupper , is also the namesake for the Brill residential area .
The water is shown on the Topographia Ducatus Montani map from 1715. Erich Philipp Ploennies labels it [in its entirety] in his created map with Hülsbec , 'bec' comes from ndt. Beek 'Bach'.
topography
The stream rises near a residential area and near the northern end of the main road Nevigeser Straße at a height of 263 m. The first stretch of the stream runs around 500 meters above ground in a small natural area and leads south along the Nevigeser Straße . With the wet meadow by the stream and the large meadows with a playground, which is equipped with a half pipe , a park-like recreational area has been created here with the paved path .
The Briller Bach has formed a small valley in the slate, which the road follows. In the further course, the stream is piped and continues underground. He follows the further course of Nevigeser Straße , Boschstraße and Kruppstraße and then passes under the federal motorway 46 .
Now the brook follows the further course of Briller Straße further south , which got its name from the brook. At the same time, this main street is the eastern limit to the Briller Viertel , which is on the eastern slope of the Nützenberg , and the western limit of the Mount of Olives . The brook continues at the level of Katernberger Straße until it flows into the Wupper at 148 meters above sea level. The confluence is after crossing under the federal highway 7 near the suspension railway station Robert-Daum-Platz .
