Summary

[edit]
Description
Deutsch: Lauter-Ursprung, Karstquelle der Kleinen- oder Herrlinger Lauter, die bei Herrlingen (Blaustein) in die Blau mündet, Schwäbische Alb. Die Blau mündet sodann in Ulm in die Donau. Die aus einem Felsen des Oberjura-Massenkalk (Unterer Felsenkalk-Formation, ki2, Weißjura delta) entspringende Karstquelle ist gestaut, damit das 1893 eingeweihte Wasserkraftwerk Strom liefern konnte. Heute ist das immer noch funktionsfähige Wasserwerk ein Technisches Denkmal.
Das Lautertal ist bis zu 200m tief in den Kalkstein der Alb eingeschnitten. Das schmale Tal mit seinen steilen Hängen ist in seinem mittleren Teil wegen seiner sehr hohen Biodiversität als Naturschutzgebiet geschützt. Der ergiebige, permanent fließende Karstquelltopf „Lauter-Ursprung“ beginnt heute etwa nach 6,3 km. Durch intensive Verkarstung ist die obere Hälfte des Tals ein Trockental. Von der Quelle an schlängelt sich das Flüsschen noch in seine ursprünglichen Verlauf durch Wiesen und Äcker.

English: Dammed Karst spring of the „Small Lauter“, tributary of the river Blau, Swabian Alb. River Blau itself flows into the Danube at Ulm. The karst spring’s water fed the hydropower station next to it. The power station from 1893 is now a historical technical monument.
The narrow valley of the Lauter was deeply eroded. The upper section is now a dry valley. Part of the dry valley and 3,5km of the Lauter’s 6,2km are a protected nature reserve. Here the rivulet meanders unregulated through meadows and fields.
