Üßbach

Üßbach

Üßbach is a German placename. It most commonly refers to a small stream or river in a German-speaking region. The name itself is a compound word, derived from the German words "Üß" (a historical or regional term, potentially related to "Au," meaning meadow or riparian area) and "Bach" (meaning stream or brook).

Therefore, "Üßbach" can be understood as "stream through the Üß" or "stream near the meadow/riparian area." It is frequently used as the name of the settlement located near such a stream. The specific etymology of "Üß" may vary regionally, leading to slightly different interpretations of the overall placename.

Often, locations named Üßbach are rural or situated in areas with significant natural watercourses. Topographic maps of Germany and surrounding countries can be used to identify existing settlements or geographic features bearing the name Üßbach.
