Location
Its source is east of Westerngrund-Oberwestern. It flows in southwesterly direction through the Schulzengrund valley and discharges in Oberwestern into the Westerbach.
Since 1 July 2013 it became famous, because the Geographic centre of the European Union is located in a wet meadow left of the Schulzengrundbach, when Croatia joined the European Union.[3][4]
