The Quohrener ditch is a one kilometer long left tributary of the Loschwitzbach in the Loschwitz district in the east of Dresden .

Natural monument 87 Stiel-oak Quohrener Straße

The stream rises from the Quohren spring in the Quohren district . This organically shaped seepage spring with permanent water flow is located a few meters southeast of the Dresden natural monument 87 Stiel-Eiche Quohrener Straße , north of the junction of Hempelweg from Quohrener Straße. The Quohrener Straße is part of the district road 6212 , which leads from Schönfeld in the Schönfeld highlands northwest through Cunnersdorf and Gönnsdorf to Quohren and in a flat valley basin on to Bühlau to federal road 6 .

The Quohrener ditch flows alongside the road and is partially piped only to the east, from the 1.6 hectare large natural monument 49 meadows and pond on Quohrener Strasse west of Quohrener Strasse. There it flows through the Quohren village pond, which is around 700 square meters in size, and then takes up the stable pond ditch on the right-hand side in a piped section. Another short piped section follows an open section at the level of St. Michaels Church .

South of Ullersdorfer Platz, the Quohrener ditch changes its direction for the last two hundred meters to the west and crosses under the street Am Kurhaus Bühlau . Initially in a north-westerly, later south-south-westerly direction, it flows at the rear edge of the buildings and flows west of the Kurhaus Bühlau into the Loschwitzbach, which flows westwards . Originally the estuary was probably upstream, east of Ullersdorfer Platz.

As part of flood damage removal, flood protection and renaturation, many piped streams are being exposed again in Dresden. In 2018, this affected a short section of the Quohren ditch; further sections are to be added when the Quohren roads are expanded.
