The Erft is a river in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It flows through the foothills of the Eifel, and joins the Rhine river. Its origin is near Nettersheim, and its mouth in Neuss. The river is 103 km long, which is significantly shorter than it was originally. Due to the open-pit mining of lignite in the Hambacher Loch the flow of the river had to be changed.
