Elsebach (in its upper course, upstream from the Lollenbach, also: Reingser Bach) is a small river of North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. Its source is north of Oestrich (a district of Iserlohn).[2][3] Near Reingsen, it is joined by its left tributary Lollenbach. It empties into the Ruhr near Schwerte.[4]
The open air bath "Elsebad" is named after the creek which was used in the past to provide water for the bath.
