Ilmenau (river)
Ilmenau is a river south of Hamburg, in Lower Saxony, Germany
The Ilmenau originates in the Lüneburg Heath, south of Uelzen, as confluence of the rivers Gerdau and Stederau in, a district of Uelzen. It is a left tributary of the Elbe near Winsen.
The Ilmenau is long, including its source river Stederau. The largest towns along the Ilmenau are Uelzen and Lüneburg. The city Ilmenau in Thuringia is not along the river Ilmenau but along the river Ilm. Even though this waterway is hardly used, yet it is used for some other important works like boating license essential, etc.
