The Fleckenbachsee is a dammed mill pond in the Ellwang Mountains south of the hamlet Ipshof in the Frankenhardt community in the Schwäbisch Hall district in northeastern Baden-Württemberg . The Fleckenbachsägmühle , also called Fleckenbacher Sägmühle , is located on its bank .

geography

The Fleckenbachsee is located in the Frankenhardt suburb of Honhardt near the southern edge of the municipality at about 486  m on the wooded and sparsely populated plateau of the northern Ellwang Mountains , which are naturally a sub-region of the Swabian-Franconian Forest Mountains . Only about one kilometer to the north, the terrain drops steeply to the Speltachgrund , which belongs to the neighboring sub-area Burgberg-Vorhöhen and Speltachbucht . The entire catchment area lies in the silica sandstone ( Hassberge formation ) of the Mittelkeuper . Less than two hundred meters away from the lake in the northeast is the hamlet of Ipshof with about a dozen house numbers, in the south close to the bank of the Fleckenbacher Sägmühle with the mill property on the dam, which already existed in the 14th century, and another nearby on the low slope above the west bank, which was only built in the 20th century. A closed path runs along the southeast edge of the lake from Ipshof to Fleckenbachsägmühle, which leads over the dam and then connects this small town to the north-west of the road network.

description

It is traversed by the uppermost Blinden Rot , which moves in the old Danubian direction roughly with the layer falling of the south-west German stepland and thus with a very moderate gradient south to the upper Kocher . This 28.5 km long river is only a little over 3 km long in the lake and takes in the less than 1 km long Kohlbach from the northwest , which drains the eastern part of the Schäfer forest area, which begins less than 200 m west of the lake shore, to the lake.

These two feeding waters run parallel for the last 200 m before the inlet, in between a small forest of alders and ash trees has formed, which merges into a reed-covered siltation zone closer to the lake; between the two inlet bays a small headland pushes itself into the lake. It experiences a further, but more inconspicuous inflow via another reed area on the northeast edge from the Harbach forest area directly adjacent to the east . The catchment area covers about 2.6 km² and reaches heights of up to 518.7  m above sea level. NHN .

Protected areas

The lake and the surrounding area, only 200 to 300 meters wide between the two large forests in the west and east, are part of the Upper Blinde-Rot-Tal nature reserve . The lake together with the inlet areas is also designated as a 4.1 hectare extensive natural monument, the directly adjoining quarry forest upstream as another with an area of ​​1.8 hectares.

tourism

On the aforementioned farm path on the southeast bank, the Franconian-Swabian Way of St. James, marked with a white shell on a blue background, leads hikers and pilgrims from Burgberg via Frankenhardt-Mainkling to the scenic, quiet lake and then via Rosenberg to Hohenberg .
