Dickelsbach, Brook in Wanheimerort district, Duisburg, Germany

The Dickelsbach extends for 22 kilometers through various landscapes before flowing into the Rhine River at Duisburg-Hochfeld.

During medieval times, official documents referred to the Dickelsbach simply as 'Beek', 'Beeck', or 'Beick', with its current name emerging around 1800.

The Beekstrasse, leading from Salvator Church to the former stream location, maintains the historical connection to the Dickelsbach in modern Duisburg.

The stream's elevation changes from 140 meters at its source to 28 meters at its mouth, creating varying water flow patterns throughout its course.

The Dickelsbach formerly served as the only waterway passing by Duisburg, supplying water to the city moat during earlier periods.
