The Tonndorfbach is an approximately twelve kilometer long tributary of the Ilm in the Weimarer Land in Central Thuringia.

The Tonndorfbach drains the western part of the Tannrodaer Waldland and rises on the eastern edge of the Klettbacher district Schellroda near Erfurt .

To the south-east of Klettbach , the Tonndorfbach forms an approximately 100-meter-deep breakthrough valley between the 470-meter-high Eichberg in the west and the 483-meter-high Quingerberg in the east. This breakthrough valley was also used by the old trade route from Erfurt to Bohemia . Today the state road L 1052 to Kranichfeld runs in this area .

At the end of the valley is Nauendorf , further in a south-easterly direction follows the Tonndorf stream . This is where the Münchner Grund begins , which the Tonndorfbach then flows through before it joins the Ilm in Munich from the left.

The origin of the name is not clear. However, the stream is named after the Tonndorf through which it flows.
