The Bruchgraben ( Ruisseau le Bruchgraben ) is a right tributary of the Seltzbach in the French department of Bas-Rhin .

course

The rift rises at an altitude of 188  m in the northern Vosges on the northeastern edge of the Niederwald forest south of Merkwiller-Péchelbronn . It initially flows in an easterly direction through fields and meadows to the north past the former Le Bel Puit VIII oil production facility and then crosses under the D114 . Shortly afterwards it is fed by a small meadow ditch on its right side. The Bruchgraben now flows northeast, crosses under the D28 and finally flows into the Seltzbach east of Merkwiller-Péchelbronn at an altitude of 154  m .
