Orlacher Bach is a stream in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It is a tributary of the Kocher and is long. It is named for the small village of Orlach, which sits high above it. The stream begins about a kilometer WSW of the village of Nesselbach.

Extreme weather led to the stream's overflowing its banks on May 29, 2016, contributing to considerable damage to the town of Braunsbach.[1] [2]
