A Current: Floods at Schwabach, Regnitz and Aurach
Stand: 27.02.2026
Since mid-February, footpaths and cycle paths have been closed in various places and the "flood barriers" have been closed. This is due to the thaw and the rainfall since then.
The thaw and rainfall have also caused the Schwabach, Regnitz and Aurach rivers to rise in the city area. On Thursday morning (February 12), the city's civil engineering department closed footpaths and cycle paths in various places or closed the "flood barriers" due to overflowing and minor flooding.
Currently (as of February 27, 11:30 a.m.), the following are closed:
Along the Regnitz:
- Herzogenauracher Damm footpath and cycle path (to Regnitzbrücke, south and north)
- Cycle and footpath to Bruck (Kraftwerkstraße)
- Eastern underpass to Frauenaurach (Main-Danube Canal)
- Western underpass to Bruck (Main-Danube Canal)
- Dechsendorfer Strasße - Thalermühlstraße
- Dechsendorfer Strasse - Fischhäusla
- Dechsendorfer Straße - between house numbers 1 and 3
Along the Schwabach:
- Ritzerstraße footpaths and cycle paths (east and west; towards Bogenweg)
- between Schronfeld and Löhestraße
Along the Aurach :
- Pappenheimer Straße footpaths/cycle paths
