    Here in Altchemnitz, the Chemnitz river is "born" under this bridge from the union of the Zwönitz (right arm) and Würschnitz (left arm) rivers.
    According to Wikipedia, the Zwönitz rises in the Ore Mountains on the southwest edge of the Geyer Plateau between the towns of Zwönitz and Elterlein and is 39 km long up to this point.
    The Würschnitz rises as the Beuthenbach on the border of the Grüna and Beutha districts in the Central Ore Mountains and is 29 km long.
    The Chemnitz flows into the Zwickauer Mulde south of Wechselburg and is 37 km long from here.

      If you drive from the city center to Klaffenbach (see my tour "Chemnitz market to Klaffenbach moated castle and chillout on the shore"), this is a must!

        The Chemnitz arises from the confluence of the Würschnitz (Hügelbach) and the larger Zwönitz (Zvonica - sounding brook) in the south of the city of Chemnitz (in the Altchemnitz district) and runs parallel to Annaberger Straße to the city center (Falkeplatz). The Chemnitz then flows west past the Brühl, and then leaves the city of Chemnitz in the Chemnitz Valley through the districts of Furth and Draisdorf near the Schützenwald forest.
