geography
course
The Riedengraben rises in the southern Hesselbacher Waldland at an altitude of about 287 m above sea level. NN just under one kilometer north of the Obertheres district, which belongs to the municipality of Theres, northeast of Steinberg on the southern edge of a deciduous forest.
It first flows about a hundred and fifty meters in a south-easterly direction along the edge of the forest, then crosses a dirt road and then changes its direction to the south. He now runs southwards, then more south-south-eastwards through the fields of the Heiligengraben , accompanied by the dirt road. A good half a kilometer down the stream, it crosses under HAS 4, which leads from the district of Theres Buch to Obertheres, and then moves southward in an agricultural zone first through the Sauleithe corridor and then through the Riedengraben corridor, which gives it its name .
It now reaches the northwestern edge of Obertheres and flows along the western edge of the town, parallel to Seestrasse . Shortly before the Klosterstrasse , the stream disappears into the ground from which it only reappears after crossing the B26 .
It then crosses the tracks of the Bamberg – Rottendorf railway line and finally joins the St 2426, which branches off the main road, a good six hundred meters above the main bridge, at approximately 350 km of the Main and in the Unter Wern corridor on the southwestern edge of Obertheres at an altitude of 216 m above sea level . NN from the right and north into the Main.
