The Schlumper Bach (sometimes just the Schlumper ) is a 2.3 kilometer long brook in the Leipzig district in Saxony and a tributary of the Störmthal lake .

course

The Schlumper brook rises on the western edge of the Oberholz , located southeast of Leipzig , and then flows west towards Störmthal . At the part of Störmthal, which is commonly referred to as sheep farm, he reaches the sheep farm. At the outlet from the pond, he crosses under the district road K7925.

Until the 1980s it flowed, touching the castle park of Störmthal, then again through a pond in the Rödgen district of Störmthal . From here it crossed a wide meadow valley, before flowing into the Gösel between the Magdeborn districts of Göltzschen and Gruna .

The Gösel had already been interrupted in its old run to the Pleiße in the 1960s by the Espenhain opencast mine . Therefore, a newly created tributary to the relocated Gösel to Pötzschau was necessary. When the lower reaches of the Schlumper brook fell victim to the opencast mine in the 1980s, it was integrated into the open pit drainage on the edge of the open pit south of Störmthal.

When the open-cast mine was closed in the first half of the 1990s, it was no longer drained, and the remaining hole was flooded to the Störmthal lake . The water from the Schlumper brook was fed into the lake via a pipeline about 500 meters long. This began about 300 meters below the shepherd's pond with an inlet structure at a small pond.

In the design of the northeast bank of the Störmthaler See, an open course of the Schlumper brook is again provided, whereby the overcoming of the height difference on the steep bank of over 35 meters takes place over a short distance in two cascades with five steps each. The construction work began in October 2017 and was completed at the end of 2018.

A left tributary of the Schnauder , which flows southeast of Groitzsch into the Schnaudermühlgraben, is also called Schlumperbach.
