Mulde River
Highlight • River
The river's catchment area encompasses large parts of Saxony and, in particular, the vast majority 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 form of the Mulde's name, Milda, is translated by onomastics as "the watery one."[9] The word component "Mel," referring to milling, is sometimes associated with the name due to the large number of mills that once operated on the river, which ignores the fact that river names represent the oldest, often Slavic or Celtic, geographical name layer.

People & History
A carriage owner who made freights to Schmannewitz, Sitzenroda, Torgau around 1870 organized an annual children's festival and thought up the sack boat as a new fun. He could have taken this sack-horse from a legend that goes as follows: Emperor Heinrich liked to travel to the Dahlen Heathland to relax and hunt. When the Sorbs found out that the Emperor was going out again, they decided to ambush and kill him. But it was the time of the blueberries and a boy from Dahlen, who was walking through the heath, discovered the Sorbs and overheard them. He heard about the Sorbs' murder plans. When he set out to report this to the emperor, he was discovered and put in the sack. At night, when everyone was asleep, he got up and hopped to Dahlen to warn the emperor. In the Weimar Republic, it was common for groups of hikers arriving to have to buy sacks on the market square.
