 The confluence of the Nahle in the Neue Luppe |

The Nahle is a 2.7 kilometer long tributary of the White Elster in Leipzig , Saxony , and flows into the Neue Luppe . It is part of the Elster-Luppe system in the northern Leipzig floodplain forest .
course
Today's course
The Nahle is a flowing body of first order. It begins as an outflow of the Elster basin (10) at its north-west end and initially leads in a straight line in a north-westerly direction. After just a few meters, the Burgauenbach (9), which leads west, branches off , then the Nahle crosses the Nahle weir (8) and picks up the Kleine Luppe (7) on the left, in whose original bed it flows from there. In its further course it crosses under the railway line Leipzig – Großkorbetha (6), the Leipziger Güterring (5) and the Gustav-Esche-Straße (4). About 300 m west of the Auensee (2) the Nahle flows into the Neue Luppe (1), which at this point has a level of 99.6 m above sea level. NN has.
Shortly before that, a 3 km long flood bed branches off on the left side, which runs parallel to the Neue Luppe further south and finally disappears into the landscape. Via the Nahle outlet structure (3) built in 1954 after the floods of July 1954 , the floodplain forest south of the Neue Luppe including the Burgaue can be flooded. The outlet structure was opened partially on January 9, 2011 and fully opened on January 14, 2011. In June 2013 the outlet was opened a second time during the flood . The near outlet structure was replaced by a new building in 2014.
Original course
The Nahle originally began further east, where it branched off from the Weisse Elster at Niederholz opposite the Rosental . Its inflow was regulated by the Nagel- or Amelungs weir, which lies immediately to the north in the Elster. In the area of what is now the Elster Basin, it absorbed the Kuhburg water, which has now been filled in, from the south . It finally flowed into the bowl .
Surname
The name Nahle means "the pool water".
Nahleberg
The former Möckern landfill, which is located west of the river and is wooded on the slopes, with a height of about 30 meters is sometimes referred to as Nahleberg ; the summit stone also bears this name.
