The linden tree - also called Starger in ancient times - is a slightly more than 42 km long right tributary of the Tollense in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania . There is a considerable difference in altitude of over 117 meters between the sources and the mouth.

River course

According to today's definition, the linden tree arises in the municipality of the town of Woldegk , on the north side of the Helpter mountain , a good kilometer south-southeast of the village of Helpt from the confluence of a small pond and a trickle from the forest.

The linden tree flows from Helpt to the west as a small body of water that is partly piped . At Pasenow it flows through the Great Lake and then the Small Lake. At Petersdorf it falls below 80 m above sea level and is continuously visible above ground from here. Its cut erosion valley begins in Lindetal and reaches its greatest depth between Stargard Castle and Neubrandenburg .

In Neubrandenburg, the linden tree forms the outer moat of the medieval defenses just behind the swan pond, between the Stargarder Tor and the Treptower Tor . Still south of Rostocker Straße it flows into the Oberbach, the right arm of the Tollense. The Gietenbach, a canal south of the Neubrandenburg city center, today leads the majority of the Lindewater into the Tollensesee at 0.55 m³ / s , from which it then naturally flows into the Tollense , but for the most part through its left arm, the Ölmühlenbach .

history

In historical times, the linden tree drove many important water mills , filled parts of the medieval moat system of Neubrandenburg and in times of war flooded the fractures in the south and west of the city.

In earlier times, the advertiser Mühlenbach was also seen as a tributary of the linden tree. However, today it is attributed to the Nonnenbach . His bifurcation at Blankensee is already shown in the Schmettauschen map series of the 18th century with emphasis on the branch to Wanzkaer See , whose outflow is the Nonnenbach.
