geography
course
The Maisenbach arises under the Maisenbach settlement of Uissigheim , on the left slope from the confluence of the Hartgraben main strand upper course coming from the west, which rises south of the Rinderberg and southwest of Uissigheim, and the shorter Eiersheimer Graben, which arises on the northern edge of Eiersheim. It initially flows shortly to the northeast and soon turns north through a valley that is now wooded on the slopes. At the Dahlenflur it turns its course to the north. It flows through a narrow valley west past the Kammerforst , passes a former pumice stone factory and finally flows into the Tauber at the Dorfmühle , south of the Werbach district of Gamburg .
The Maisenbach is 6.2 km long together with the Hartgraben, from its union with the Eiersheimer Graben it is 2.8 km long.
Catchment area
He has a 18.2 km² large catchment area, the part of the hard trench run to the total maize creek called about north natural area mainly for subspace Wertheimer plateau of sandstone Spessart is expected, except from the lower valley in the subspace Lower Tauber , while the parts south of which belong to the northernmost sub-area Wolferstetten-Eiersheimer Höhe of the building land . Its about 418 m above sea level. It reaches its greatest height on the southwest edge in the forest area called Taubenloch .
In the east the next larger body of water is the Tauber itself, which absorbs the Maisenbach , in the south the catchment area of the higher Tauber tributary Brehmbach borders, in the west that of the deeper Tauber tributary Amorsbach , whose main line runs in a very similar direction to that of the Maisenbach.
