geography

Lohrquelle

The Lohr spring

The Lohrbach rises in Lohrhaupten (municipality of Flörsbachtal ) from two heavily pouring springs. The upper, weaker one is on the street in the Lohr and bears the official name Lohrquelle . The source outlet is located in a red sandstone wall. At times, a mostly dry-falling stream flows from the Wohnroder valley into the source area. The bronze figure “Lohrchen” sits directly at the source .

course

The Lohrbach leaves Lohrhaupten in a southerly direction and unites near the Ziegelhütte with the Flörsbach to Lohr coming from the northwest .
