From the small bridge, you have a nice view over the water.

The Mulde flows exclusively in the North German Plain, initially through the Saxon Uplands, and passes Grimma, Nerchau, and Trebsen. Approximately near Wurzen, on the western edge of which it flows, the Mulde reaches the Elbe-Mulde Lowland. It then flows through Eilenburg and Bad Düben and shortly thereafter leaves Saxon territory. The remaining course to its mouth is covered by the Mulde in Saxony-Anhalt. Further downstream, until 1975, the Mulde flowed west of the two places Pouch and Friedersdorf in the area of today's Goitzschesee. Since then, it has been dammed up east of the two places in the Muldestausee – a former open-cast mine. Subsequently, the Mulde flows past Muldenstein, Jeßnitz, Raguhn, and Dessau and flows into the Elbe between Dessau and Roßlau after 147 km.[2] The revitalization project "Wilde Mulde" for the lower course in Dessau was recognized in November 2018 as an official project of the UN Decade of Biodiversity.[11][12] Source https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mulde_(Fluss)#Hochwasser

Although the confluence of the two source rivers takes place at approximately half the total length of the Mulde, the Freiberger Mulde and Zwickauer Mulde already contribute over 80% of the total water volume. This is due to the shape of the catchment area, which is very wide in the Ore Mountains and narrows towards the Elbe, and also to the higher precipitation in the mountains and simultaneously higher proportion of runoff water. The shape of the catchment areas also means that the longer Zwickauer Mulde is the smaller of the two source rivers at the confluence. The hydrologically strongly dominating main branch of the Freiberger Mulde river system is the Zschopau. In its upper catchment area, it is again a named tributary, the Flöha, that contributes the larger water flow and is thus the actual source river of the Mulde. Along this main flow path, the Mulde is approximately 267 kilometers long, and along the longest flow path (Zwickauer Mulde) a good 314 kilometers.[3] The Mulde catchment area shows total drops of 600 to 900 meters for many important flow paths, so that exceptionally high flow velocities prevail here for Northern Germany. The Mulde is sometimes even referred to as the fastest flowing river in Central Europe.[10] Source https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mulde_(Fluss)#Hochwasser

The Mulde, also known as Vereinte Mulde or Vereinigte Mulde, is a left-hand, non-navigable tributary of the Elbe. It is formed southeast of Leipzig near Sermuth (Saxony) by the confluence of two large headwaters, the longer Zwickauer Mulde and the Freiberger Mulde, which drains a larger catchment area with a greater discharge. The river's catchment area covers large parts of Saxony and, in particular, by far the largest part of the northern slopes of the Ore Mountains. With a water flow of approximately 73 m³/s at its mouth[8], it is the fourth largest tributary of the Elbe. The old name for the Mulde, Milda, is translated by linguists as "the water-rich one".[9] The word component Mel, referring to grinding, is sometimes associated with the name in view of the large number of mills previously operated on the river, which overlooks the fact that river names represent the oldest, often Slavic or Celtic, geographical name layer.
