The Kronach is a river in Upper Franconia, Bavaria, Germany. It is about 5 miles (8 km) long and is formed from the confluence of the rivers Kremnitz and Grümpel, south of Wilhelmsthal. From there it flows in a generally southerly direction to its confluence with the Haßlach at the town of Kronach. The ST2200 road, which connects those two places, follows its valley.
