The Steinhuder Meerbach , often just called "Meerbach" by its residents, is a 29 km long orographically right tributary of the Weser in Lower Saxony .
course
The Steinhuder Meerbach is the natural outflow of the Steinhuder Meer . Its water flow clearly exceeds that of the surface tributaries of the lake. It leaves it at its northwestern end and flows from there in a westerly direction through the Meerbruch nature reserve and the town of Rehburg . It then turns its course to the north and flows into the Weser after 29 km at Nienburg with an average water flow of a good 2 m³ / s .
The Steinhuder Meerbach is canalised almost along its entire length. In the city of Nienburg it is also often called the Aue , and in the neighboring towns to the south it is also called the Bäke .
At the point of the sharp bend to the west in Nienburg shortly before the mouth of the Weser, the Meerbach flowed further northeast and flowed into the Aller at Rethem . Today the Schipsegraben follows its earlier course.
