geography

course

The Röderbach rises as Haibach in the village of the same name Haibach . It flows in a north-westerly direction between Schellberg and Hasenkopf through Haibacher Switzerland to the Schellenmühle at the foot of the Gartenberg (309 m). There the Haibach crosses the border to the city ​​of Aschaffenburg and bears the name Röderbach. This then flows over a fork in the stream , where the left arm, which has been heaped up and dug up as an open channel , is completely led into the pheasantry when the water level is low in front of a weir . With normal flow, both arms of the stream run further north and unite in the Goldbach municipality above Österreicher Strasse. The Röderbach then crosses under the Österreicher Straße and the route of the Main-Spessart-Bahn as well as the driveway to the federal motorway 3 (junction 59 Aschaffenburg Ost ) and flows into the Aschaff .

The part of the Röderbach branched off into the pheasantry feeds the lake there and flows outside of the pheasantry, piped and in a culvert under the ditch of the Miltenberger railway through to the grandmother meadow . There the water from the Kühruhgraben in the Hannewackersee is supplied to him. The piping continues to the so-called Muttersee, a small pond on the edge of the Schöntal landscape garden . The piping on the Großmutterwiese was removed in a renaturation project and the Röderbach exposed again. In the Schöntal, the stream serves as a fresh water inflow for the Muttersee, the Schöntal Canal and the lake around the Schöntal ruins. Its outflow, formerly called Leergraben , still flowed in an open city moat along the historic city wall to the west until the 19th century and reached the Löhergraben at the level of today's parking garage Löherstrasse. It flows into the Main under the Willigis Bridge . Today the former Leergraben and the former Löhergraben are completely piped.
