environment

The Odenbach is one of the fine material rich, carbonate low mountain range brooks. Its water structure has largely changed significantly to significantly, in the local areas it is even very significantly to completely. The water quality in the upper reaches is given as heavily polluted (quality class III). From the confluence of the brook from Neuhof to Hefersweiler, the brook is indicated as being lightly polluted (quality class I-II), and in the lower reaches as moderately polluted (quality class II) (as of 2005). There are seven municipal sewage treatment plants by the stream.

Attractions

The most important sights in the Odenbachtal are two moated castles :

  • The moated castle Odenbach at the confluence of the stream in the Glan was built in the second half of the 12th century by the Counts of Veldenz and blown up in 1683 by the troops of the French King Louis XIV . The ruin has a renovated remnant of the keep , which consists of impressive humpback blocks and, as a pond tower, has become the landmark of the municipality of Odenbach.
