The Große Fließ (until the 1930s Mutnitza ; Mutnica in Lower Sorbian ) is an almost 25 kilometer long right tributary of the Spree in Brandenburg .

Names

The name "Großes Fließ" has only been used since the Germanization of the names of the Sorbian waters under National Socialist rule for several stretches of water previously designated by other names - Malxe ( Lower Sorbian Małksa ; to Schmogrow), Patschowina (Patšowina) , Bluschnitza (Blušnicań , Schrebenza (Žcar) and Mutnitza (Mutnica) .

course

According to today's topography, the river arises about 700 meters east of Fehrow through the confluence of the Malxe and Hammergraben (Lower Sorbian: Goramśica ). Passing Fehrow to the south, it touches the northern border of the Briesen district and reaches Schmogrow on the southern outskirts. Until the elimination of the Sorbian-derived water names in the Spreewald, the water until Schmogrow was called Malxe and there was divided into Moksche Broda (today Nordfließ) and Patschowina (Großes Fließ).

Here, the water shares for the first time - the main stream (Patschowina) continues to flow towards the southwest and branches here redirector west to north flow from (Moksche Broda). On the western edge of Schmogrow there is another cross connection between the main stream and the diversion . A few hundred meters further from there, the river reaches the north flood plain , which was created in the first half of the 20th century, and a culvert that carries water in the original course of the Great River under the north flood plain.

Shortly after passing the culvert, the course of the river divides again, because here the small river (traditionally Schrebenza ) branches off to the right and then runs parallel to the west. Also heading west, the now traditionally called Bluschnitza , reaches the district of Burg and crosses it in the north. Several smaller ditches and rivers reach the water and in some cases also form cross-connections to the small river. South on Buschmühle where the small flow has come back to the Great flow and north of Burg-Kauper past, the river combines short of oak with oak floating and the North flow , a few hundred meters further separated but again from the north flow . From oak onwards, the large river is traditionally called Mutnitza .

Then it goes through the high forest , on the border of the district of Alt Zauche-Wußwerk and Lübben further west, north past the Polenzschänke . A few hundred meters behind, the water of the Polenzoa and the Hegemeisterkanal enter from the right . On the southern edge of the Birkenwald nature reserve , the route continues on the boundary between Lübben and Lübbenau to the confluence with the Burg-Lübben Canal, a good three kilometers northwest of Lübbenau.
