The Kunzenbach is a body of water around 1.3 kilometers long in the municipality of Durmersheim in the Baden-Württemberg district of Rastatt .

geography

The Rastatt Rhine Lowlands are criss-crossed by numerous silted up meanders of the Rhine . A meander near Durmersheim later took up the Federbach . Around 1800 the Federbach was laid in a 600-meter-long cut. The Kunzenbach runs in the upper and southern part of this loop of river, which is about 2.5 kilometers long; the lower and northern part is traversed by the Tieflachgraben, into which the Kunzenbach flows from the right.

The Kunzenbach branches off from the Federbach not far from the western outskirts of Durmersheim to the left and west. In the upper reaches it flows through an area with allotment gardens and sports fields. On the lower reaches of the left bank, the former impact slope of the river bend , there is an industrial area belonging to Durmersheim. Just before its confluence with the Tieflachgraben, a ditch flows from the left and south to the Kunzenbach, which comes from the Durmersheim district of Würmersheim and is lined with reeds and a wood with willows.

The Kunzenbach lies in the nature reserve Rheinniederung between Au am Rhein, Durmersheim and Rheinstetten or forms its border. In the lower reaches of the Gleithang a covered fen with a peat thickness of up to 70 centimeters borders the watercourse. Large parts of the moor are covered with reeds or willow bushes. Large areas are relatively often covered with water, so that conditions that are comparatively close to nature have arisen. In the upper reaches of the Kunzenbach is accompanied by woods and reeds.
