    The Guttenbach dam is a river barrage and consists of a double lock on the right bank, a triple weir and a power station on the left bank in the direction of the Neckar.

    Hiking

    It consists of a double lock on the right bank, a three-span weir, and a hydroelectric power station on the left bank. The facility was originally built in the 1930s and later modernized to optimize lock operation and energy generation.

    A special highlight is the lock and weir bridge, which offers wonderful views of the Neckar River and the surrounding area. However, you should be free from vertigo, as the bridge is made of gratings that allow you to look directly into the depths.
