Köhm
Köhm is a small river of North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It flows into the Niers near Erkelenz-Keyenberg. Its upper course no longer exists due to lignite mining ( Garzweiler surface mine).

Here, at an altitude of 120 m above sea level, was the watershed between the Erft (Rhine) and the Rur/Niers (Meuse). From here, the Köhm flowed north past Alt-Otzenrath.
