Gottleuba


The Gottleuba is a small river in the Czech Republic and in Saxony, Germany. It is a left tributary of the Elbe.
The Gottleuba's source is in the eastern part of the Ore Mountains, north of Ústí nad Labem. After a few km it crosses the Czech-German border, and flows the rest of its in Saxony. It passes the Gottleuba Dam and the town Bad Gottleuba-Berggießhübel, and flows into the Elbe in Pirna. In July 1927, there was a flash flood in the river due to heavy rain.
