Schwennigke

The Schwennigke, also Schwenke, is a river in Saxony, Germany, and a left-hand tributary of the Schnauder. It rises in the Gleinaer Grund[1] and runs from Tröglitz for a distance of about 25 kilometres (16 mi) through the Elster water meadows parallel to the White Elster, before emptying into the Schnauder at Audigast near Groitzsch.
