The Ohrenklingenbach is a less than a kilometer long brook in the urban area of Schwäbisch Hall in the district of Schwäbisch Hall in north-eastern Baden-Württemberg , which runs through the Ohrenklinge to the cooker on a roughly east-northeastern course .

geography

course

The Ohrenklingenbach arises on the eastern edge of the Gottwollshausen district in a valley inheritance that is already pronounced above it, near an abandoned quarry next to an initially paved path into the valley. The highest beginning of the brook, which was initially rotten, is about 330  m above sea level. NN . The watercourse, which has little catchment area and is mainly located in the fissured Upper Muschelkalk , is very often very dry.

Initially the east and on the Gailenkirchener Teilortgemarkung to Gottwollshausen by its strongly eintiefende, narrow forest sword drawing, he will soon come to the Teilortgemarkung of lying in the Kocher central Hall over and turns it on Northeast run. Here it runs right under the Crailsheim – Heilbronn railway line , which crosses the deep notch of the brook for less than 20 meters between the Haller Tunnel in the south and the Gottwollshauser Tunnel in the north.

On the subsequent straight section of the valley, the brook leads only episodically water to the valley over a wide bed of laid shell limestone slabs under steep slopes with dry stone walls and rock slides. But in summer you can also hear a rushing noise from below the slabs - be it that natural drainage is led here or that a sewer pipe runs down to the valley under the stream bed. At the end of the blade there is a narrow allotment garden next to the footpath to the left of the stream, then at the exit from the blade there is the first house at the transition from the left-hand spur to a terrain platform in front of which the stream is about two meters deep and slightly wider , brick trough along the Neumäuerstraße of the city on the southeast run. After the third house on the right side of the street, he crosses under the street and continues in a trough on the left side of the road to the old spinning mill . It is soon spanned by a small footbridge along an asphalt path leading to Gelbingen .

Then it flows out to about 270  m above sea level. NN a few steps below the Archenbrücke at the bend in the valley of Neumäuerstraße and shortly before the left-hand exit of the mill canal of the old spinning mill from the river in a south-easterly direction from the left and to about 269.8  m above sea level. NN in the middle cooker .

The Ohrenklingenbach has no noticeable tributaries and, after its 0.7 km long valley path with a mean bottom gradient of over 80 ‰, flows about 60 meters below its highest point of flow.

Catchment area

The Ohrenklingenbach has a catchment area of ​​less than 0.4 km², which lies shortly before the Gelbinger loop on the left slope of the Kocher valley and on the adjacent left plateau. Beyond the western catchment area border on this plateau, which runs through Gottwollshausen, borders the catchment area of ​​the Schleifbach , a noticeably larger tributary of the downstream Kocher. There is no natural watercourse in front of the Kocher itself either behind the northern and left or the eastern and right watershed .

The entire catchment area is in the urban area of ​​Schwäbisch Hall, the larger western part with half the village Gottwollshausen on this side of the watershed in the suburb of Gailenkirchen , the smaller eastern part on the suburb of the central city.

In terms of nature , the area belongs to the sub-area Kupferzeller Ebene and Kocheneck of the Hohenloher and Haller Ebene

geology

The upper catchment area is in the Lettenkeuper ( Erfurt Formation ), the brook only emerges in the open course in the Upper Muschelkalk below and flows into the Middle Muschelkalk .

An abandoned limestone quarry to the right of the upper valley basin opens up the Upper Muschelkalk and carries a Lettenkeuper cover over the excavation wall, which has since become difficult to see because of the burial. In the area of ​​the quarry near the Kocher valley, there are layer deformations caused by subrosion. For a long time, access to the quarry was barred by a barrier, today (2016) it is accessible again.
