The
Große Enz stream in the hamlet of Enzklösterle in the northern Black Forest.
The name of the hamlet, containing the Swabian German diminutive "
Klösterle" (=small monastery), derives from the name of the stream (
Große Enz) and a Cistercian monastery founded in 1145 (but dissolved in 1536 after the reformation).
The stream's spring is not far south from the hamlet. Further downriver the stream
Große Enz (Big Enz) joins the
Kleine Enz (Little Enz) to form the
Enz river, the most important and longest tributary to the
Neckar river.
