Built in 1926-1932, 65 m high and 205 m long gravity dam with a connecting road leading above it between Gräfenwarth and Remptendorf for the purpose of damming the Saale (Bleilochstausee) as part of the Saale cascade; the power plant supplies peak load energy with a maximum capacity of 80 MW; Thuringia's only building to be awarded the seal "Historical landmark of engineering architecture in Germany";

The dam is currently closed to both cyclists and pedestrians due to construction work.
