Wümme River
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Wümme is a river in northern Germany. It is the left tributary of the Lesum, which runs into the Weser River.
It runs 118 km across northern Lower Saxony and the state of Bremen, marking the border between the two states for part of its course.
The river's source is located on the Wulfsberg in Lüneburg Heath. West of Rotenburg, it takes up the rivers Rodau and Wiedau. It merges with the Hamme by Wasserhorst where the two rivers combine to form the Lesum.
