The Schäfbach is a westerly flowing brook in the municipality of Bühlerzell in the district of Schwäbisch Hall in north-eastern Baden-Württemberg , which flows into the upper Bühler from the right and east in the center of Bühlerzell .

geography

course

The Schäfbach arises at about 455  m above sea level. NHN approx. 1.4 km east of the center of Bühlerzell in the edge of the forest to the Heidenbuck farmland bay in the east. The resistant westward current Bach once digs a muddy forest sword , after three hundred meters of forest ends right hand, after less than six hundred leaves the stream the forest behind him and pulls the left below the Talsteigenstrecke the chamber rapporteurs road from Pfaffenberg down in a tree gallery. After about a kilometer it flows through at almost 400  m above sea level. NHN a small pond in the contour of the Bühlerzell settlement next to the Steinklingenweg. Soon afterwards it disappears in a hollow, takes in the slope stream from the Lourdes grotto on the Roßberg from the left and follows the route of the Schäfbachweg. After crossing Heilberger Straße L 1072 to the south of Bühlerzell's church, it finally steps outside again and then flows immediately from the right and about fifty meters above the river bridge in Bühlerzell at about 380  m above sea level. NHN in the upper Bühler .

After a 1.6 km long run with a mean bottom gradient of about 46 ‰, the Schäfbach flows about 75 meters below its origin.

Catchment area

The Schäfbach drains about 1.2 km² in the far west of the sub-area Ellwanger Berge of the natural area Swabian-Franconian Forest Mountains on the west course through an initially notch-shaped valley that continues downward to the Bühlertal valley between the faster-falling Pfaffenberg on the right and the Rossberg protruding further into the river valley right. The brook is the first of three brooks running close to each other from the right of the Bühler, to which another valley runs from the opposite side, in the common valley spider lies the village of Bühlerzell.

The northern watershed rises eastward from the mouth to the narrow spur ridge of the Pfaffenberg before the next right Bühler tributary Pfaffenbach , it ends at the northeast tip of the catchment area just before the Benzenhof at an altitude of 482.9  m above sea level. NHN , the largest in the whole catchment area. From here on, its eastern border runs in front of the valley of the upper Gruppenbach with little incidence southwards over a saddle to the approach of the Rossberg spur , on whose contour line the left watershed then runs approximately west-southwest to the vicinity of the Höhenhof Roßberg, where it has a local maximum of 480.7  m above sea level Reaches NHN ; on this side only smaller right Bühler tributaries compete after initially the Gruppenbach. Then the left border on the edge of the Bühler Valley pulls steeply down the Rossberghang to the mouth in Bühlerzell.

The Middle Keuper is in the catchment area . Its highest layer is the silica sandstone ( Hassberge Formation ) on the spur plateaus of Pfaffenberg and Rossberg. On the western slope below, the Schäfbach runs its loamy blade through the lower colored marls ( Steigerwald Formation ), then a flatter section of the stream in a similarly wide reed sandstone band ( Stuttgart Formation ), whereupon the gypsum keuper begins, below whose estheria layers the valley widens and the village of Bühlerzell begins. The stream finally flows through a confluence fan in the broad floodplain sediment band that accompanies the Bühler.

The entire catchment area belongs to the municipality of Bühlerzell; Apart from a sector of the eponymous village and main town at the mouth in the valley, the Roßberg residential area is just barely there, close to the summit of the Rossberg (!).

Origin of the Schäfbach at about 455  m above sea level. NHN about 1.4 km east of the Bühlerzell town center near the upper edge of the Klingenwald to the Heidenbuck bay .

  • RiverIcon-SmallLake.svgFlows through at almost 400  m above sea level. NHN a pond in the east of Bühlerzell next to the Steinklingenweg, 0.1 ha.
  • (Bach vom Rossberg ), from the left and south to about 384  m above sea level. NHN near the kindergarten in the already rotten area, approx. 0.5 km and approx. 0.3 km². Arises near the source of the Lourdes grotto on the Roßberg at about 435  m above sea level. NHN on the northern slope of the Rossberg . Initially running on the edge of the forest, then Wiesenbach, it also pulls through a newer settlement in Bühlertann on the lower Rossberghang for a long time, finally verdolt.

Mouth of the Schäfbach from the right and east to 380  m above sea level. NHN in Bühlerzell about 50 meters above the river bridge from the right and east into the Bühler . The stream is 1.6 km long and has a catchment area of ​​approximately 1.2 km².
