Adenauer Bach in June 1910

The Adenauer Bach is a right-hand, southern tributary of the Ahr, just under 16 kilometres long. It flows through Adenau in the county of Ahrweiler in the German state of Rhineland-Palatinate.

In its upper reaches the Adenauer Bach is known as the Breidscheider Bach and it rises about a kilometre south of Quiddelbach at an elevation of ca. 533 m above sea level (NHN). It flows in a northeasterly direction to Breidscheid on the Nordschleife of the Nürburgring motor racing track. From there it bears the name of Adenauer Bach. It then flows in a westerly direction, mostly in pipes, through the town of Adenau and then heads north, passing the villages of Leimbach and Niederadenau (part of Dümpelfeld). In Dümpelfeld it discharges from the right into the Rhine tributary, the Ahr at about 209 m.

The catchment area is 58.5 km² and drains via the Ahr and Rhine into the North Sea.
