The Elbe (Low German: Elv, Czech: Labe, Latin: Albis) is a Central European river that originates in the Czech Republic, flows through Germany, and empties into the North Sea. It drains, among other things, a large part of eastern Germany and almost all of Bohemia, which is surrounded by low mountain ranges. The most well-known rivers in its catchment area include the Vltava, the Mulde, the Saale, the Havel with the Spree, and the Elde with the Müritz. Characterized by the low mountain ranges in its upper reaches, it further follows two glacial valleys in the North German Plain.
