The Große Striegis or Striegis 1 is a left, on the main strand 48.1 km long tributary of the Freiberg Mulde in Saxony .

Surname

The interpretation of the name is uncertain. Striegis probably goes back to an older Indo-European form . The interpretation often mentioned in literature: Wendish Stregawa , rushing river could be a very free translation.

course

The Große Striegis has several small source streams in and near Langenau at altitudes of 500 m to 546  m above sea level. NN . It flows in a north-westerly direction through Linda , where it takes up the Erbisdorfer Bach , then through Oberschöna , where it takes up the Oberreichenbacher Bach , and then through Wegefarth , where the Schirmbach flows into it. Between Linda and Oberschöna on the right bank are the mouth holes of the Neuer Segen Gottes Stolln and the Thelersberger Stolln , which served to keep the pits in the Brander mountain area drained and in particular drained the Himmelsfürst treasure trove .

In the further course the valley is increasingly narrow and deeply cut into the plateau of the lower Ore Mountains ; the valley slopes are almost entirely covered with natural mixed forest. Above Bräunsdorf , the Kemnitzbach coming from Wingendorf joins on the left . In Goßberg the Langhennersdorfer Bach , which rises in Langhennersdorf and flows through Seifersdorf , flows into the Große Striegis. After passing Pappendorf , it flows into Berbersdorf , after a run of 36 kilometers, with the Kleine Striegis. The Striegis then flows, passing the village of Böhrigen , Striegistal municipality , in a northerly direction and after another 11 kilometers flows into the Freiberg Mulde at Niederstriegis .

Remarks

1To this day there is no uniform geographical name for the entire course of the river. The Saxon mile sheets , recorded around 1800, describe the entire course down to the confluence with the Freiberg Mulde as "large Striegis". The measuring table sheet published in 1942 calls it "Striegis". In the TK25, the upper course is referred to as "Große Striegis" and the lower course from the tributary of the Kleine Striegis only as "Striegis". This variant is also often found in prose descriptions, often provided with the adjective "(united)" to emphasize it, but this combination is not found in any official description. In the TK10, on the other hand, the upper course up to the Erbisdorfer Bach is labeled as "Striegis" and the entire lower course as "Große Striegis". Finally, the water network map and the hydrological yearbook of the LfULG responsible for the water body use both terms synonymously as "Striegis / Große Striegis". However, their use of a uniform GKZ shows that the course from the source at Langenau to the confluence with the Freiberg Mulde is viewed as a single river and the Kleine Striegis as its tributary. It must therefore remain open whether the name Striegis, which is not further qualified, only applies to the lower reaches or is a short form also or solely for the entire course.
