The Krumm is a 12 to 13 km long river on the edge of the Swabian Alb in central Baden-Württemberg , which flows from the right and east-northeast in Eislingen in the district of Göppingen into the Fils running to the west .

course

The Krumm rises at the southern foot of the Rechberg east of the Rechberger Fuchshof , from where it initially flows west-south-west to the Jackenhof of the municipality of Ottenbach, where it changes to south-south-west, flowing through Ottenbach and Krummwälden , and immediately afterwards with the inclusion of the Bärenbach in its west-south-west direction of flow change and after crossing Eislingen it flows into the Fils itself . The Eislinger hamlet Krummwälden, which in earlier times was only called "Welden", has for some time also had that of the river in its name in order to avoid ambiguity in the place name.

Catchment area

The Krumm drains 30.0 km² on the middle Albtrauf southwest of the Fils. Its catchment area has roughly the shape of a parallelogram with a longer diagonal from northeast to southwest of about 10 km, perpendicular to it the maximum width reaches a little over 5 km. Its blunt northwest corner lies on the Hohenstaufen ( 684.1 m above sea level ), the pointed northeast corner  on the Rechberg ( 707.9  m above sea level ), the blunt southeast corner at an unnamed altitude east above the Salacher Kapfhöfen ( 564.6  m) above sea level ), the pointed southwest at the mouth (below 330  m above sea level ). The highest point is on the summit of the Rechberg .

Beyond the well-developed northern watershed between Hohenstaufen and Rechberg , the left Rems tributaries Beutenbach , Tannbach and Tiefenbach compete one after the other . On the eastern, also striking (" Rehgebirge ") it is briefly the Waldstetter Bach at Rechberg , which also reaches the Rems via the Josefsbach , and then to the southeast corner of the Reichenbach , which drains like all other competitors to the Fils . At this corner, the Reichenbach- Vorfluter Lauter itself is a short neighbor, in the whole rest of the south and the southwest the Fils itself. In the northwest the border runs towards the catchment area of ​​the Marbach .

Tributaries

Inflows and course details from the source to the mouth. Water lengths as a rule according to the data sets of LUBW-FG10, corresponding to water areas according to LUBW-SG10, catchment areas according to LUBW-GEZG. Heights regularly according to the contour line image on the geodata viewer. Other sources are noted.

Origin of the Krumm in the urban area of Schwäbisch Gmünd in the forest about 150 m east of the sewage treatment plant at the southern foot of the Rechberg at about 482  m above sea level. NN . The stream initially flows west-southwest.

  • Longer source branch, from the left opposite the sewage treatment plant at about 465  m above sea level. NN , about 0.50 km. Arises in a forest blade about 300 m northwest of the Rechberger court Öden Miter to about 540  m above sea level. NN . A right, slightly shorter inlet of this tributary even rises at about 555  m above sea level. NN .

  • Bärenbach , from the left to about 347  m above sea level. NN , 3.533 km and 3.028 km². Arises in two branches of almost the same length to the northeast and southeast of the Salacher Bärenhöfles, both springs are at about 530  m above sea level. NN .

According to the map, on the forest slope northwest of the Ödengehren residential area, there is a branched upper course two to three times as long along both branches with noticeably higher springs, the higher one is about 555  m above sea level. NN , and which flows into the sewage treatment plant.
  2. According to the contour line image on the geodata viewer.
  3. According to LUBW-FG10 (data record entry).
