The Schindelbrücher artificial ditch is a ditch created in 1703/1704 in the Lower Harz , which is now drained. It is the oldest part of the Silberhütte artificial trench and part of the Lower Harz pond and trench system .
history
Georg Christoph von Utterodt took over the post of miner captain in Straßberg in 1701 . In order to better distribute the water from the catchment area of the Gräfingründer pond and to collect water from the upper catchment areas further below lying streams , under von Utterrodt's management the Schindelbruch puddle was created up to the lazy puddle pond built in 1704 . By cutting the moat from the Möllerteich , it was possible to supply the Kiliansteiche , the Frankenteich , the Maliniustich as well as the three loyal neighbors and the Glasebach and thus the Glasebacher pond with water. The watershed between Rödelbach and Glasebach is overcome by the Kohlbergrösche .
With the further expansion of the Straßberger water management under Christian Zacharias Koch , the moat crossing the Schindelbruch Kunstgraben was fed by the Möllerteich from the Rieschengraben and Ludengraben and enabled the supply of water from the catchment areas of the upper Lude and Schmalen Lude .
In 1761/62 the Anhaltische Graben was created, which branched off from the Schindelbruch artificial ditch shortly before the Treuen neighboring pond and directed the water into the Neudorf mining area of the Principality of Anhalt-Bernburg in order to supply the ponds there with impact water.
After the decline of mining and the bankruptcy of the processing plant in Silberhütte , the ditch fell into disrepair from 1910. The course is largely still recognizable in the area, at least in the upper reaches, but has no function and is often overgrown with trees. Transverse end forest roads of the ditch passes under mostly in pipes.
