Fischbach, Natural brook in Merchweiler, Germany.
The Fischbach brook flows through the municipality of Merchweiler, forming a natural water system in the mining region of Saarland.
The brook's path intersects with former mining sites, where coal extraction operations continued until 2008, producing 6.5 million tons of coal.
The waterway connects to the Fischbach Valley Railway system, which served as a vital transportation route for the region's industrial development.
The stream maintains a steady flow throughout the year, contributing to the local water management system and natural drainage patterns.
Natural geological formations along the brook reveal layers of coal deposits, marking the location of historical mining activities in the region.
