The Pfaffenklingenbach is a creek a little over half a kilometer long on the Tüngental part of the city of Schwäbisch Hall and most recently in the municipality of Wolpertshausen , both in the Schwäbisch Hall district in northeastern Baden-Württemberg . It flows into the lower Bühler from the left just above the Wolpertshausen hamlet of Hopfach .

geography

course

On the south-eastern edge of the Tüngental hamlet of Wolpertsdorf, there are some small springs in an eastward depression that feed the small pond with an area of ​​less than 2 ares. From this flows to about 400  m above sea level. NHN the Pfaffenklingenbach in the direction of the meadow hollow. After about a hundred meters it turns to the left at the entrance to its blade made of deciduous forest and flows quickly downhill in the soon-to-be-steep-walled notch on the left slope of the Bühlertal valley, lined with limestone cliffs. Halfway up the slope, the Bühlertal slope forest stops, but the Pfaffenklingenbach is still followed by a gallery of deciduous trees between the slope and valley meadows up to the mouth at around 282  m above sea level. NHN in the lower Bühler a few hundred meters above the Wolpertshausen hamlet of Hopfach.

The creek bed of the Pfaffenklingenbach, which is only about 0.7 km long and about 118 meters in altitude below its origin, has a very large mean bed gradient of about 180 ‰. It does not have permanent water.

Catchment area

The approximately 0.4 km² catchment area of ​​the brook lies mostly on the plateau to the left of the Bühlertal and with its southwestern parts counts towards the lower area of ​​the Haller level of the natural area Hohenlohe level , with its north-east to the subarea of ​​the Middle Kocher and Lower Bühlertal of the neighboring natural area Kocher-Jagst- Levels . On the plateau, the layers of the Upper and Middle Muschelkalk , which are notched in the blade and reach down to the mouth, are still supported by the Lettenkeuper ( Erfurt Formation ) of the Unterseuper , and the small source of the Pfaffenklingenbach is located on the slope of one of the black loam layers that hold up groundwater.

The most conspicuous, in itself little profiled watershed stretches from the western tip of the catchment area in the Gewann Lange Wegäcker , where it is a little over 420  m above sea level. NHN is the highest point, about east-south-east to its south-east corner in the sea ​​arcs ; behind it the more important Rotbach drains southeast to the Bühler tributary Otterbach above. Beyond the other sections of the catchment area border, at most smaller channels compete with the Bühler.

In the area around the hamlet of Wolpertsdorf, which is almost entirely the only settlement in the catchment area, there are meadows and orchards, everywhere else the high plains are under the plow. The catchment area belongs largely to the Tüngental district marking of Schwäbisch Hall, which extends over the edge of the forest on the upper left slope of the Bühlertal down to the valley meadows. Only a small wedge of the mouth in this area belongs to the municipality of Wolpertshausen and at the same time to the nature reserve Unteres Bühlertal ; above this the stream crosses over its entire width to the left of the strip adjacent thereto protected landscape Bühlertal between Vellberg and Geislingen with side valleys and adjacent areas .
