Summary
| Description |
Please take a large view! Deutsch: Der Leukbach (oder die Leuk) ist ein linker Nebenfluss der Saar und hat eine Länge von 15 km. Das Einzugsgebiet beträgt 87,9 km². Er entspringt in Eft, Ortsteil Eft-Hellendorf, Gemeinde Perl im Saarland und durchfließt die Gemeinden Mettlach, Kollesleuken (Freudenburg), Trassem und mündet in Saarburg (Rheinland-Pfalz) in die Saar.
Der Leukbach wurde bei Saarburg im 12. Jahrhundert umgeleitet und stürzt seither über einen 18 m hohen Wasserfall, den größten innerstädtischen Wasserfall in Europa. Damit ist er für Fische und andere Wasserfauna aus der Saar praktisch unzugänglich.
English: The Leukbach is a tributary of the Saar river, and has a length of 15km. The catchment area is 87.9km2. It rises in Eft, passes through Mettlach, Kollesleuken, Trassem and empties at Saarburg (Rheinland-Pfalz).
The Leukbach was redirected in the 12th century, and crashes over an 18m high waterfall, the largest urban waterfall in Europe. Thus, for fish and aquatic fauna in the Saar, it's practically inaccessible. |
