The Brombach is a brook in the central Franconian district of Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen , which after a 17 km long mainly east-south-east run to about 364  m above sea level. NHN at the Mäusleinsmühle rezatabow from Pleinfeld flows from the left into the Swabian Rezat . The middle course of the Brombach, the large reservoirs through which it mostly flows, and the lower course of the brook serve as the Danube-Main crossing , for which water from the upper course of the much richer Altmühl is transferred to its brook system via the Altmühlüberleiter . Among other things, the Brombach flows through the Great Brombachsee .

course

The stream rises in the Sterleite forest southwest of the Haundorf district of Gräfensteinberg . It flows in a south-easterly direction through the Gansbuck field and is dammed into a series of small ponds. Now he passes the district of Brombach , runs through an agricultural zone and then in the Mönchhölz forest . There he is on his right side from which the plantation forest Reutsumpf coming Reutbach fed. It flows through the 3.56 hectare nature reserve Brombachmoor and takes the Altmühlüberleiter west of the Hühnermühle . From this point on, the Brombach is considered a first order body of water . Shortly afterwards it flows through the small one , then the large Brombachsee . It flows underground from the Großer Brombachsee and feeds the Mandlesweiher , a chain of ponds near the Mandlesmühle . He leaves the first Mandlesweiher at its southern tip and then walks south of the pond chain past the Mandlesmühle. Then his run leads north along the Heiligenwaldsee . It passes under the tracks of the Treuchtlingen – Nuremberg railway line , then the state road St 2224 and finally flows northeast of Pleinfeld directly next to the Mäusleinsmühle at an altitude of 364  m above sea level. NHN from the left into the Swabian Rezat.

Catchment area

The catchment area - together with that of the Altmühlüberleiters , which, however, has little of its own catchment area and is mainly supplied by the Altmühl - comprises a total of 67.3 square kilometers. It extends about 15.5 kilometers from about the B 466 west of Graefensteinberg a little above the origin east-south-east to the mouth at the Mäusleinsmühle von Pleinfeld and has a width across it consistently less than 7 kilometers. Because the major tributaries come mainly from the left, the Brombach flows closer to the right watershed.

The left and northern watershed separates the catchment area of ​​the Franconian Rezat , which competes with its Erlbach tributary in the western part . The smaller Buxbach flows soon and for a long time just beyond the right and south dividing line from the mouth upwards . From around Langlau , the initially southern catchment area border is then part of the European main watershed , because from now on the Altmühl tributary collects the precipitation on the other side. At first there were only a few major competitors beyond this section, only after the north bend of the watershed and after this has circumnavigated the Altmühlüberleiter in a narrow, hose-like contour, the Altmühl tributary Laubenzedeler Mühlbach is again of tolerable size close to the northwest tip.

The highest elevation is the Reckenberg northwest of the village Igelsbach a little above the source of the Brombach inflow of the same name, which rises to 519  m above sea level. NHN towers.
