The Rote Main is the longer of the two headwaters of the Main river and significantly shapes the cityscape of Bayreuth. The river owes its name to the clay-rich soils of its catchment area. Especially after rainfall, reddish clay particles are washed into the water, giving it a characteristic reddish-brown color. It originates in the Lindenhardter Forst in the Franconian Switzerland, about 10 kilometers south of Bayreuth. At around 72 to 73 kilometers, it is significantly longer than the Weiße Main. Near Kulmbach (Schloss Steinenhausen), it merges with the Weiße Main to form the actual Main.

The Masel-Mühle (also known as Mühle Heinersreuth) is a historical landmark right in the core of Heinersreuth. The name comes from the Maisel family (formerly often spelled "Masel"), who owned the mill for over 300 years, from 1709 to 2011. The mill was first documented in 1398 in the Landbuch A, making it one of the oldest sites in the municipality. The current main building is a stately, two-story sandstone block with a hipped roof. The facade is marked with the year 1846, although the core of the building is significantly older. Originally, it was operated as a classic grain mill with water wheels. In the 20th century, the technology was modernized and converted to turbine drive. Active milling for flour ceased in the second half of the 20th century. Like many mills on the Roten Main, the Masel-Mühle is now used for regenerative electricity generation using hydropower.

The confluence of the Mistelbach (also simply called Mistel) and the Roter Main is an important water management and geographical point in Bayreuth. The Mistelbach flows into the Roter Main as a left tributary in the western part of Bayreuth, near the Volksfestplatz and the Rotmain-Center. While the watercourse is mostly called "Mistel" in the surrounding area, the designation "Mistelbach" is common within the city limits. For a long time, the Mistelbach was trapped in an artificial concrete bed. In recent years, however, parts of the stream have been renatured to allow fish to ascend via ramps and to improve the ecological condition. The area around the confluence is central to the city's flood protection. The Roter Main has been partially channelized in the urban area to prevent floods (like the severe flood of 1995).
