Pied piper drawn the rates in WESER RIVER in North Western Germany.-
Excerpts from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pied_Piper
"In 1284, the town of Hamelin was suffering from a dreaded rat infestation. One day, a man claiming to be a rat-catcher approached the villagers with a solution. They promised him a schilling for the head of each rat. The man accepted and thus took a pipe and lured the rats with a song into the Weser river, where all 999,999 drowned."-

The town of Hamlin is on the river Weser, so one would assume he used the nearest river.
