geography

course

The Freudenbach rises southeast of the village of the same name Freudenbach from a pond on the edge of the forest. It flows towards the place, turns a little before it about shortly after the confluence of the left tributary Lachengraben on approximately northern course, crosses it and then runs through the valley meanders of a small shell limestone valley . Between the two places mentioned, it flows into the Steinach from the left on Bavarian land .

The Steinbach is 5.2 km long, of which only the last 100 meters are in Bavaria, after the state border had already partially extended to the right bank.

Catchment area

Of the 8.2 km² catchment area, which in natural terms belongs to the Freudenbacher Platte sub-area of the Tauberland , more than five sixths are in the urban area of Creglingen, the small portion in Bavaria roughly half belongs to the municipality of Adelshofen in the district of Ansbach on the southeastern edge and the majority of the municipality Simmershofen right of the lower reaches.
