The Buchenbach crosses the Mühlkanal and flows into the Jagst.

The Buchenbach is an approximately 3 km long stream in the Hohenlohekreis in northeastern Baden-Württemberg , which flows into the middle Jagst from the left and south near the village of Buchenbach in the municipality of Mulfingen .

geography

course

The Buchenbach arises southeast of Nitzenhausen at about 433  m above sea level. NN as an inconsistent water-bearing ditch close to the road to the Rappoldsweiler Hof and runs along it towards Nitzenhausen, which lies in an already sunk valley basin and is crossed by it, almost to the very end, towards the north. Behind it, it turns only briefly to the northeast and reaches about 405  m above sea level. NN his wooded blade . In it he turns north and passes the area of ​​a rededicated shell limestone quarry on the right slope.

Shortly after exiting the forest, after more than 1.5 km of the blade run, the dead blade, which is not half as long, runs to the left, from which its only significant tributary flows at a fork in the road. After a few hundred meters on a north-northwest course, it enters the small village of Buchenbach in the confluence and flows through it between the castle on the left and its church on the lower right slope. Finally, on a small bridge, it crosses the Mühlkanal to Berndshofen, which was branched off at a weir in the river, and flows a few steps later below the river bridge of the village at about 271  m above sea level. NN from the left into the middle Jagst flowing here northwest .

From Nitzenhausen, the stream is closely accompanied by the L 1034 coming from Mäusdorf .

Catchment area

The Buchenbach has a catchment area of ​​4.3 km², to which its left tributary through the Dead Blade contributes a little less than a third. Most of it lies on the strip of the Hohenlohe Plain, which is only about 5 km wide, between the deeply cut valleys of Kocher in the southwest and Jagst in the northeast; the deeper parts of the catchment area from the blades of the brook and its inlet cover only about 0.5 km². The highest point is south of Nitzenhausen on the watershed in the Hohen Lindle at 448.6  m above sea level. NN , above the blade incisions, the terrain of the plateau does not fall below 390  m above sea level anywhere . NN .

The immediate competitors are the longer Speltbach beyond the watershed from south-west to north, which reaches the Jagst a little below at Berndshofen ; from north to east the Jagst itself; in the southeast the shorter Unterregenbacher Totensteigebach , in the south the Heiligenbach, which flows into the Kocher near Kocherstetten, of about the same length.

About the book Bach the drain Künzelsauer village Nitzenhausen uppermost run and the Mulfingen Bodenhof, who is also on the plateau on the left just over the longer source stream of the inflow through the dead blade is, and most of the old settlement core left the Jagst the also Mulfinger estuary village of Buchbach in River valley. About 2.6 km² of the catchment area, almost only in its south, are in the Künzelsau area, the remaining 1.7 km² with almost all of the blade areas are on Mulfinger.

Most of the plateau is arable land, in the soft area of ​​Nitzenhausen and the Bodenhof there are tree gardens and meadows, which also cover a few side hollows. Forest covers almost all of the blades and is scattered over the area in a few small forest islands.

Origin of the Buchenbach a quarter of a kilometer southeast of the local boundary of Nitzenhausen on the road to Rappoldsweiler Hof at about 433  m above sea level. NN . The brook initially runs unsteadily as a ditch to the village.

  • (Stream through the Dead's Blade ), from the left a little above Buchenbach at the junction of the K 2303 to Mulfingen from the L 1034 to Mäusdorf at about 305  m above sea level. NN , 0.906 km from the confluence of the upper courses, 1.268 km from the origin of the right and about 1.3 km². Arises just before the blade enters at about 403  m above sea level. NN from two converging headwaters.
    • (Ditch from the south), right upper course, 0.362 km. Arises on the right forest island of the Boden at about 415  m above sea level. NN .
    • (Inflow from the west), from the left just before the blade entry to about 403  m above sea level. NN , 0.547 km. Arises at almost 430  m above sea level. NN .

Mouth of the Buchenbach in the Mulfingen village of Buchenbach at about 271  m above sea level. NN from the left and finally south-southwest into the Jagst . The stream here is 3.1 km long and has a catchment area of ​​4.3 km².

geology

The sources of the book of Bach and his blades inflows originate in the border area of the large on the Hohenlohe plain areas covering sub Keuper to him often lying Lösssediment that forms here on the hilltops around the southeastern and western watershed of two islands. Both bodies of water reach the Upper Muschelkalk at their striking blade incisions, the Middle one before the estuary village, and in it the lowest Buchenbach course the Lower one , into which it also flows.

In the above-mentioned quarry on the right at the beginning of the blade, the Upper Muschelkalk is exposed. To the east, near the watershed, on the edge of a field triangle surrounded by wooded areas, there is a tree-lined sinkhole 23 m in diameter and 4 m deep in the Unterkeuper.

Protected areas

The two blades around the lower reaches belong to the landscape protection area "Jagsttal with side valleys ...". Above the village of Buchenbach and the road to Mulfingen, there are some stone bars in the hillside forest that are under biotope protection. On the longest part of the Buchenbach-Klinge and above all the Deadly Blade, belts of near-natural biotopes run along the waters.
