Run

The Grundbach rises south of Lingerhahn at around 460 m above sea level in a basin . Shortly before Bubach , the Dudenrother Bach comes from the right and from the north . In 1932/33 the Bubacher Gymnastics Club and the community built an outdoor pool here , which was then called the Adolf Hitler Baths until 1945 , then fell into disrepair and was leased as a trout pond from 1961. It is entered on the map of the German Empire , sheet no. 140 Simmern from 1940, with the signature BA. Below Bubach, a small raft , also known as the Maisborner Bach, comes in from the left , but its water was enough to wash the fodder beet until the 1960s. Shortly beforehand, the Bubacher Brücke , a bridge built from rubble stones in 1844, crosses the stream. After another inflow from the right, the Laubach , coming from the vicinity of the place of the same name , the stream has enough water to run a first mill. The Bubacher mill, an overshot of the mill operated comrades Gesellschaftsmühle was first in the 1874/75 Land Registry entered, rebuilt in 1937 and 1964 shut down. It then served as the hunting tenant's accommodation until it was converted into a weekend house in 1974/75. Below Riegenroth , four mills follow one another: the Uligs-Mühl (oil mill) or Oberste Mühle , the Klumpe Mühl , the Breidenbach's Mühle and the Sehnen-Mühle . The oil mill was given up around the turn of the 20th century. The tendon mill is now an organic farm with a farm shop. Shortly after the tendon mill Grundbach opens below Kissel Bach to 370 m mouth height in the Simmersbach.

Large parts of the Grundbach have been straightened and expanded. Some of the old courses and the mill ditches can still be seen on the satellite images. There are a few ponds at the bottom of the stream.
