The Dürrbach is a 5 km long brook in East Thuringia that flows into the Orla from the left and south near Kolba in the municipality of Oppurg in the Saale-Orla district .

course

It rises east of the "Dürrbachsmühle" in a field at the "Weiraer Wald". The brook flows from the south towards the Orla , repeatedly dammed by ponds , but does not reach the Orla above ground in the dry summer months - the water seeps through calcareous rock layers, so-called fruit fissures, and thus flows underground to the Orla.
