The Geyerbach ( called Einsbächel in the upper reaches ) is a left tributary of the Zschopau, Saxon Erzgebirgskreis , Germany .
course
The Geyerbach rises under the name Einsbächel in the Geyerschen forest a little east of the television tower Geyer and north of the restaurant "Waldhaus" and initially runs eastwards to northeast to the northwestern outskirts of Geyer. From there the brook is called Geyerbach . It flows through the city of Geyer from northwest to southeast roughly parallel to its most important traffic axis. In the further course the Geyerbach crosses the former mining area south of the Geyersberg , which extends to the Tannenberg district of Siebenhöfen .
After passing Siebenhöfen and having also passed through a short forest valley section, the Geyerbach reaches the western edge of Tannenberg itself. There the Lohenbach flows into Obertannenberg from the west, which has passed the Tannenberg forest pool a little before. The Geyerbach then turns eastwards through Tannenberg and even flows into the Zschopau from the left in the center of the village .
Others
The smelting works and stamping works of Geyer's mining industry once stretched down the Geyerbach valley to Siebenhöfen. In Tannenberg, a Francis turbine was operated near the Zainhammer , for which the required water was cut off from the Geyerbach via the Hammergraben. Between 1888 and 1967 the narrow-gauge railway Schönfeld-Wiesa-Meinersdorf ran between Geyer and Tannenberg through the Geyerbach valley.
