The tarpaulin is a left, around 61 km long tributary of the Havel in Brandenburg ( Germany ). Your catchment area has an area of ​​639 km². It is the largest of the four major natural rivers on the north side of the Hohen Fläming , which include the tarpaulin and its tributary Temnitz , the Buckau and the Verlorenwasser .

Surname

After Sophie Wauer, the name Plane comes from the Old Polish plony and describes a river that flows in the plain. Plony refers to a flat, flat, and barren terrain. Local Slavs were at home in the Gau Ploni . The village of Planow, west of the course of the river between Reckahn and Göttin, was named after the river, which was first mentioned in a deed of donation from Margrave Otto the Langen to Neustadt (Brandenburg an der Havel) in 1297 and already fell as desolate in Charles IV's land register from 1375 ( tota deserta ).

River course

Plan at the
Gömnigk watermill

It rises in the district of Potsdam-Mittelmark in the municipality of Rabenstein , which is located in the Hoher Fläming Nature Park . There its source is located around 10 km west of Niemegk and just under 2 km west of Raben . However, this is not a defined source, but a swampy headwaters.

First the tarpaulin flows past Raben at the foot of Rabenstein Castle and then passes Rädigke , the oldest village in Fläming . Then it flows north, so that it flows a few kilometers further into the Baruther glacial valley . On the floor of the glacial valley she poured an alluvial fan that enabled the Linthe and Brück settlements to be built. At the beginning of the alluvial fan there is in the water mill of Gömnigk a river bifurcation . Here the Kleine Plane branches off to the right , the water of which flows over the Nieplitz to the Nuthe . The Zauche plateau rises north of the glacial valley and the course of the river . The tarpaulin flows through the Belziger landscape meadows to Golzow , and then flows into the Breitlingsee around twenty kilometers north . This lake, through which the Havel flows, is located west of Brandenburg an der Havel . Shortly before the confluence, in the artificially created estuary, it receives its largest tributary, the Temnitz or the Sandfurthgraben, as the water in the lower reaches is called.

Due to the relatively high material input of the tarpaulin into the Havel, the end section of the river between Wilhelmsdorfer Landstrasse and the Havel was artificially turned in the direction west to south (WzS) and the confluence was created 300 m south of the Havelgemünd in the Breitlingsee. This work turned out to be necessary because at that time commercial shipping, which was still running over the course of the Havel, was severely endangered and impaired by the Havel in the old confluence of the Plan, which was repeatedly silting up and flattening out.

Tributaries

Tributaries of the tarpaulin from their source and their tributaries are:

  • Buffbach
    • Adda
  • Lühnsdorfer Bach
  • Dahnsdorfer Bach
  • Long Mörza
  • Belziger Bach
    • Lumpenbach
    • Springbach
    • Dallbach
    • Baitzer Bach
      • Streckebach
  • Temnitz with source Hellbach and Unterlauf Sandfurthgraben

In addition, the tarpaulin and its tributaries accommodate a large number of artificial rivers and ditches.

Landscape image

The tarpaulin, which runs through a few meanders on its course with fairly clean water , is one of the few rivers in an otherwise rather poor-spring landscape that it flows through. On her way she passes meadows, pastures and forests. Their banks are mostly overgrown by rows of trees. Numerous mills used the driving force of the water on both banks of the tarpaulin.

Flora and fauna

Trout, for example, live in the river alongside other fish species . The Latin name of the local brook lamprey ( Lampetra planeri ) is borrowed from the name of the river. Among other things, river beavers and cranes are temporarily resident in the Planetal . In the source area of ​​the tarpaulin one often meets the crested newt , where there is also an artificially created spawning area.

Protected areas

In its course, the tarpaulin flows through several partially overlapping protected areas. Thus, the flow is, for example, until just before Golzow in the High Fläming Nature Park and conservation area High Fläming - Belziger Landschaftswiesen. In addition, the source area is designated as a nature reserve Planetal. It was placed under protection in 1967. Another nature reserve northwest of Belzig is the Belziger Landschaftswiesen reserve. This is also part of the Lower Rhinluch / Dreetzer See, Havelländisches Luch and Belziger Landschaftswiesen SPA areas, with the Belziger Landschaftswiesen being designated as part C. The tarpaulin was also taken under protection in several FFH areas . In the upper reaches the designation is called Planetal, in the middle reaches Plane and in the lower reaches Plane Supplement. In its lower reaches in the city of Brandenburg up to its confluence with the Breitlingssee, the tarpaulin lies in the landscape protection area of ​​Brandenburg forest and lake area. The estuary itself is located in three protected areas, in the Stadthavel nature reserve, in the FFH area Mittlere Havel Supplement and in the SPA area Mittlere Havelniederung. Several sections in the course of the tarpaulin have been placed under protection as protected biotopes .
