The Milchbornbach is a 1.6 km long brook that flows into the Saaler Mühlenbach .
The name of the water body Milchbornbach can also be found in settlement names and tub names. The original cadastre records the single homestead Am Milchborn , northwest of Schloss Bensberg, as well as the name Am Milchbornsfeld . The name comes from the whitish-cloudy color of the water, which has an association with milk . Consequently, the stream name Milchborn means a spring from which milky-cloudy water flows.
