The Schmiedebach is a four-and-a-half kilometer long stream running approximately northeast in the urban area of Crailsheim in the district of Schwäbisch Hall in northeastern Baden-Württemberg , which, after flowing through the Crailsheim village of Tiefenbach, is on the plateau a little below a Satteldorfer quarry on the opposite slope at the Barenhaldenmühle from the left flows into the Jagst .

geography

course

The Schmiedebach arises on the eastern edge of the forest on the Reußenberg to the Hagenreith bay, still within the boundaries of the Reußenberg nature reserve , which continues a little further east into the open landscape , which has a restless, hilly height structure due to progressive subrosion . He is the outflow of about 437  m above sea level. NHN lying on the tree line , small hut pond and initially runs southeast. After about a quarter of a kilometer, the still modest watercourse runs through another small pond at about 435  m above sea level. NHN , after which it leaves the Reußenberg in a fairly constant north-easterly direction through a wide and flat landscape.

After about a kilometer, he runs for a quarter of a kilometer in the ditch of a paved field path, on the southeast side of which is adjacent to the once boggy headwaters of the Lindenbach , in which peat was extracted for a while. The broken up fields here still show noticeably dark colors. In the past, a part of these peat meadows also drained to the Schmiedebach.

After the dirt road has moved away from the run and this has passed the small forest island of Eichwald on the left bank, the stream begins to run in a hollow in the terrain. Where it reaches the edge of the district road K 2641, which runs from Rüddern in the west to Tiefenbach in the east, it runs along the 2.5 km long Rohrbach , which rises in the northern Reußenberg and exceeds the Schmiedebach-Lauf up to there in length as the contributed sub-catchment area.

A little next to the county road, the Schmiedebach reaches the edge of the village of Tiefenbach. This is where the Judenbach flows from the west-northwest , a somewhat smaller tributary that originates on the edge of the somewhat larger forest island of Käppele north of Rüddern.

The brook crosses Tiefenbach in a sunken channel, with a number of tall trees along the course. In the village it passes under the L 1041 Kirchberg an der Jagst - Crailsheim . The lower course that begins after that, which is a little over a kilometer long, has dug in one of the shell limestone blades that are typical further down on the Jagst , which is completely wooded on the last section, now moving northwards. Finally, the Schmiedebach about empties half a kilometer below the to Satteldorf belonging Barenhaldenmühle to about 386  m above sea level. NHN from the left into the middle Jagst .

The Schmiedebach flows after a 4.6 km long run about 51 meters below its origin, so its mean bottom slope is about 11 ‰.

After the Reußenberg area, the stream is initially completely bare, only from the forest island of Eichwald there are sporadic trees along the course, which then accompany it constantly from the upper town limits of Tiefenbach.

Catchment area

The Schmiedebach has a catchment area of ​​6.2 km², which extends from the western Reußenberg about five kilometers east-northeast to the mouth and reaches a maximum width of about two kilometers across it. Geographically seen it participates in three areas - the Haller level in the west of Crailsheim Bay in the east, both part of the Hohenlohe and Haller level are, as well as the Kocher-Jagst levels counted Eastern Kocher-Jagst Riedel on the northern edge.

The with little over 455  m above sea level. The highest altitude in the catchment area is reached near the southwest corner not far from the Black Lache in the Reußenberg nature reserve , a restless hilly landscape with gypsum keuper subrosion and often only underground runoff, which is why the watershed in this area can hardly be determined exactly. In any case, to the south of it, part of the lakes created in sealed sinkholes drains above ground via the Schwarzlachenbach to the Maulach , a tributary of the Jagst further up the river. Beyond the northwestern watershed, the Grundbach leads its water further downwards at Lobenhausen to the Jagst, while on the other side of the northern watershed, at most, small channels lead to the very close Jagst. The Lindenbach , which emerges very close to the upper reaches of the Schmiedebach in the Tiefenbach swamp, drains the area that extends to the greater part of the south-eastern catchment area to the east, slightly above the Schmiedebach zur Jagst.

In the south-western and southern parts of the catchment area there is the Gipskeuper ( Grabfeld Formation ), to the north of it the Lettenkeuper ( Erfurt Formation ), which is covered over a large area by Quaternary deposits of loess sediment . The stream bed reaches the Upper Muschelkalk only last in its underflow blade , which is swung in to the north . From Kirchberg an der Jagst in the northwest, the long Kirchberg fault runs through the catchment area southwest and crosses the stream near Tiefenbach.

The entire catchment area lies in the urban area of Crailsheim , its southern edge of around 0.5 km² with the Schmiedebach origin Hutsee in the Roßfeld subdivision , a gusset in the southwest of around 0.6 km² in that of Triensbach and the rest of about 5, 0 km² in the von Tiefenbach . There are only three places in it, all of which belong to the Tiefenbach district marking , the hamlet of Rüddern a little to the left of the central Rohrbach; the village of Tiefenbach, in which the lower section of the Schmiedebach begins, lies largely in it, with a few nearby resettlers' farms; The hamlet of Wollmershausen, on the other hand, has only a few buildings on this side of the northern watershed .

About a sixth of the catchment area is forest, most of it on the Reußenberg in the south, the majority in small islands in the interior or on the edge, a tiny portion also close to the mouth in the underflow. Today (2017) the open corridor is mostly plowed, while until the 20th century the flat and wide depressions of the waters were largely cultivated as grassland.
