The Brombach is a good six kilometers long left tributary of the Mümling in the Odenwald , in whose catchment area most of the districts of the municipality of Brombachtal are located.

geography

course

The Brombach rises with several source streams on the eastern slope of the Spreng , a convenient transition from the Mümling valley to the Gersprenz valley , which is used by the federal highway 47 , the Nibelungenstrasse .

From here the Brombach flows in an easterly direction through a wide, agriculturally used valley to Langenbrombach and receives the only noteworthy tributaries from the left, the Hembach , which comes from the town of the same name , and the Dorfbach , which flows through Kirchbrombach . Behind Langenbrombach the valley narrows between densely wooded valley slopes and the brook strives with a steep gradient towards the Mümling lowlands near Zell in the Odenwald .

The confluence with the Mümling is a few meters above the bridge of the Kreisstraße 91, which crosses the Mümlingtal to connect Zell to the Bundesstraße 45 .
