Summary[edit]

Description
Deutsch: Starke Kalktuff Ablagerungen im Donntal, einem Seitental der Lenninger Lauter bei Gutenberg (Lenningen). Das Tal und eine weite Umgebung um Gutenberg ist das Naturschutzgebiet "Oberes Lenninger Tal mit Seitentälern".
Durch die chemisch aus dem Wasser gefällten Kalke entstehen Überzug, Stufen oder auch kleine Wälle, die das Wasser aufstauen. Im Bachbett verwirbelt oder über Stufen und Wälle stürzendes Wasser bildet beschleunigt zäh-schlammige Kalkmasse, die der Strömung bis zu einem bestimmten Grad widerstehen kann – insbesondere, wenn Planzenteile, Stöckchen, Blattwerk und andere kleine Hindernisse Ansetzpunkte bieten. In unzähligen, bis zu drei Metern breiten Bächen sind solche Sedimente auf der Schwäbischen Alb und im Fränkischen Jura zu beobachten. So prachtvoll wie hier jedoch selten.

English: Barrage-Tufa deposits in the side valley Donntal of river Lenninger Lauter at Gutenberg (Lenningen). This valley and a larger area around Gutenberg are the Naturschutzgebiet "Oberes Lenninger Tal mit Seitentälern”.

This variety of limestone, formed by the precipitation of carbonate minerals in water bodies retains the water in small steps and dams. The sticky, muddy limestone is stabilized, when twigs, plants, leaves or other small remains are involved.

Countless rivulets in the Swabian Alb and the Franconian Jura with such barrages may be observed. Yet only a few have developed such impressive forms.
