The Red Main Spring is the source of the Red Main river, the left-hand and southern headstream of the River Main in Germany. It is located in the Lindenhardt Forest, ten kilometres south of Bayreuth near Hörlasreuth at a height of 581 m above sea level on the southern slopes of the Tannenberg . Although the Red Main is several kilometres longer than the Weiße Main, the stronger White Main Spring is seen as the source of the Main itself.
The Red Main Spring was enclosed in stone in 1907 and, from there, the water flows along a narrow wooden pipe. The source region lies in the Franconian Switzerland-Veldenstein Forest Nature Park and belongs geologically to the Brown Jura.
