The Hörsel , in the source course (Kleine) Leina , is a 55.2 km, over the Nesse 64.3 km long, right or eastern tributary of the Werra in Thuringia . Its mean water discharge (MQ) is about 6.5 m³ / s, about half of which comes from the Nesse, which flows in from the right in the east of Eisenach , just under 10 km above the mouth of the Werra.
According to the Thuringian Water Act , the Hörsel, which is the longest and most water-rich tributary of the Werra, has the status of a water body of the first order and is therefore the maintenance burden of the Free State of Thuringia.
The river is named for the municipality of Hörsel and the Hörselberge .
course
As with many rivers, the name of the middle and lower reaches of the Hörsel was only extended to the upper reaches in the 20th century.
Kleine Leina and (Wilde) Leina
The Hörsel rises as Kleine Leina in the Thuringian Forest in the immediate vicinity of the Rennsteig south of the 749 m high Spießberga on the southern border between Finsterbergen and Georgenthal (both districts of Gotha ). The stream initially flows to the northeast and passes through various parts of the Georgenthal community.
After 8.4 kilometers of flow, the Leinakanal branches off to the right in the Schönau vor dem Walde district . Shortly afterwards, brooks flow from both sides. From Schönau vor dem Walde, the small river turns north. The name Wilde Leina appears on maps from the beginning of the 20th century . After the inflow of the Cumbach from Cumbach , the name Leina-Hörsel is found in 1905 . In the further course to the north, the reed water coming from Ernstroda flows in from the left .
Named Hörsel
In Leinatal- Leina , after 16.3 kilometers, when the Altenwasser (also: Altes Wasser , from the right) flows in, the name Leina ends completely. From here on, the river has always been called Hörsel and its course turns to the northwest.
In Wahlwinkel and Hörselgau , the bath water flows into two arms from the left . After passing Fröttstädt , the Asse flows into Teutleben from the right , whose direction of flow to the west is taken over by the Hörsel in order to flow through the Laucha Mechterstädt after it flows in.
On reaching the Wartburg district , the river crosses under the federal motorway 4 , flows south past the Hörsel Mountains through the municipalities of Hörselberg-Hainich (district Sättelstädt with the left-hand tributary Emse ) and Wutha-Farnroda , where the hereditary current flows into Wutha from the left .
Then the Hörsel reaches Eisenach , where from the right it receives the roughly equally strong Nesse and the significantly smaller Michelsbach , from the left the Löbersbach and the Roten Bach . Further west is located in Eisenach district Hörschel - the origin of Rennsteig - its mouth into the Werra .
The total length of the river “Kleine Leina – Hörsel” is 48.5 km, over the 52.6 km long Nesse the Hörsel is even about 62 km long.
Tributaries
The catchment area of the Hörsel is divided into two large landscapes. The source course Leina and left tributaries come from the Thuringian Forest , while all right tributaries come from the Thuringian Basin and its edge plates. Correspondingly, the upper reaches of the left tributaries are typical low mountain range streams with deep gorges and large riverbeds, while the right tributaries are mostly flat rivers with a slight slope, almost all of which flow into the Hörsel via the Nesse . Most of its courses have now been straightened and integrated into a system of drainage ditches.
The catchment area of the Nesse comprises 426.3 km², 54.4% of the total catchment area of the Hörsel and 139.5% of the Hörsel catchment area above the Nesse estuary (305.6 km²). As a result, the Nesse brings about the same amount of water (3.14 m² / s) to unite with the earpiece as it does itself (3.11 m² / s).
A pipeline from the Leina - and the (upper) Apfelstädt from the Gera / Unstrut / Saale / Elbe system - to the Nesse subsystem is formed by the Leina Canal , which was built in the Middle Ages to supply the city of Gotha with water from the Thuringian Forest . The course of the course of the Hörsel over the Leina-Oberlauf, Leinakanal, Wilden Graben from Leinakanal, Nesse (middle and lower reaches) and Hörsel-Unterlauf is 8.4 + 29.5 + 9.8 + 26.0 = 73.3 km.

↑ Löbersbach and Roter Bach both flow into the Eisenacher Mühlgraben (left tributary, 2.9 km), but the Löbersbach is obviously not subordinate to its water code number (41694), as the sub-catchment area of the Hörsel between the Michelsbach estuary and the former Spicke reservoir - where the Mühlgraben flows - is only 11.6 km², which clearly exceeds the sum of the two brook catchment areas. In addition, the partial catchment area of the Hörsel between the Nesse and Michelsbach estuaries is 14.8 km², which would not be possible to the right of the Mühlgraben, due to the direction of flow of the Michelsbach, so it must include the Löbersbach.
The Löbersbach is channeled underground over long stretches of the urban area, it also takes in all streams and springs coming from the Mariental (the main stream is called Marienbach ). In the past, Löbersbach and Marienbach ran separately from each other, and a branch canal that existed at times was called the Suez Canal. - ↑ The Rotebach drains the Georgental and now flows into the Mühlgraben at the Spicke festival site , Adam-Opel-Straße, only about 40 m from its confluence with the (today's) Hörsel.
