The Mettenbach is a creek about 5 km long in the district of Sigmaringen in southern Baden-Württemberg , which flows into the Grabenbach from the right in the city ​​of Meßkirch .

Surname

Up to the inlet of the Kapellenweggraben just under a kilometer before the Messkirch settlement boundary, the stream is also called the Schwarzer Graben , probably because it flows through boggy meadows.

In the lower area of ​​the Schwarzer-Graben section, the Ettenbach forest is located a little to the right of the course . Im Mettenbach is a hillside meadow immediately before the settlement border of Meßkirch .

course

f1Georeferencing Map with all coordinates of the section History : OSM

The Schwarze Graben rises from the so-called Simonsbrunnen between the Kohlbetterhof belonging to the municipality of Sauldorf and the Roman old town in the forest area from there towards Meßkirch to still in the open corridor, but already in the Meßkirch area. The Simonsbrunnen is no longer visible today and is enclosed by underground drainage pipes; the stream emerges about 200 meters below the source. ( )

The stream initially flows less than a kilometer south-east and enters the forest, in which it usually runs in a wide strip of land. With this he turns on a fairly stable east-north-east run next to a high-voltage line and leaves the forest for the reed . In its flat terrain, two short drainage ditches begin to the left of the stream, which flow in via the so-called old town ditch, a 2.5 km long left upper course, which passes the Meßkircher Einzelhof old town and both in length and catchment area exceeds the black ditch up to this point; its hollow is called the lip valley . One of the trenches begins at the former Ochsenbrunnen ( ), which is no longer visible today.

Further down, the Schwarze Graben crosses under the federal road 313 between a forest island on the left slope and the forest area on the right that recedes further . The valley basin then deepens in the Gewann Birkenloch and the smaller left tributary Kapellenweggraben flows into a small pond.

From here the stream is now called Mettenbach . After about a kilometer, unchanged approximately east-northeast, it reaches the first houses of Meßkirch on the left side of the run. Half a kilometer later he enters the courtyard garden of the Meßkirch Castle , after which he walks a little further through the old town of Meßkirch, also past the back of today's Herz-Jesu-Heim. Verdolt under the Adlerplatz it flows from the right into the Weiherbach coming from Heudorf , which is called Grabenbach from there and flows into the Ablach around 500 meters later .

Catchment area

The Mettenbach drains an area of ​​around 5.8 km², which is naturally part of the sub-area of ​​the Messkircher Albsaum (Heubergsaum) of the Danube-Ablach-Platten . Its highest point is on an elevation supporting a water reservoir above the headwaters of the old town ditch northeast of the Sauldorf hamlet of Hölzle, which is 708.2  m above sea level. Reached NHN . The northern watershed from there to the mouth borders the upper catchment area of ​​the Weiherbach / Grabenbach, which has various names in the upper reaches . Behind the shorter southeastern catchment area border to the right of the lower reaches, the Grabenbach-receiving waterway Ablach absorbs the water flowing to the other side. In the south and west of the catchment area, their higher tributaries Krumbach or Krummbach with their tributaries drain the adjacent area.

Tributaries

  • Altstadtgraben, from the left and northwest, 2.5 km and approx. 1.7 km
  • Kapellenweggraben, from the left and northwest, 1.3 km and about 0.7 km

Renaturation and Sassenage garden

f1Georeferencing Map with all coordinates of the section Renaturation and Sassenage Garden : OSM

In 2004, the Federation for the Environment and Nature Conservation Germany renatured a 1.4-kilometer section of the upper reaches. The Swabian Alb Association , Meßkirch local group, planted a new orchard meadow in the middle of the valley in 2004. ( )

In 1981 the so-called Sassenage garden was created on the left bank of the Hofgarten in honor of the French twin town Sassenage von Meßkirch , whose pond is fed by the Mettenbach. ( ) In April 2008 this was completely redesigned.

In earlier times the Mettenbach flowed directly before this confluence through the garden of the Capuchin monastery (donated in 1661 by Franz Christoph from the Fürstenberg-Messkirch line , demolished in 1828) under the Loretto Chapel (built 1676/77). ( ) This was dismantled in 1883 and rebuilt as the chapel of the Marienhaus in today's Kolpingstrasse. ( )
