The Geßliche is a side valley of the Oelsabach valley near Rabenau in the Saxon Switzerland-Eastern Ore Mountains district .
location
The side valley that begins below the Marktsteig at the Poisen houses in the districts of Obernaundorf and Wilmsdorf and merges into the Oelsabach valley near Oelsa is referred to as the Geßliche . It is crossed by a flagstone path that has been designated as an agricultural area. For the most part it is a meadow valley.
history
The Großölsaer Straße was laid out in the 19th century, crosses the ground and is now used exclusively as a country and forest road. In the upper section, wells were built around 1930, from which the water turbines once installed pumped their water. After the end of World War II in 1945, the Red Army drilled for uranium in the Geßliche meadows ; the samples were too few to support it. A drill got stuck in the earth to this day because it broke off when it was pulled out. The black pond at the bottom was created at the beginning of the 20th century and renewed after the floods in 2002 . The forest path that leads past this bears the name Lindenwehrweg. Another larger pond on the Plattenweg is fed by a small side stream.
Geßlichbach
The stream of the same name runs through the entire length of the river through the districts of Wilmsdorf, Obernaundorf, Rabenau and the Karsdorf forest district (Rabenauer forest) . Two small streams flow from the Kleine Straße near Oelsa to it. Pollard willows and black alders stand along the course of the stream . The Geßlichbach flows into the Oelsabach .
