The dam Skalka (Czech Vodní nádrž Skalka) is located west of the city Cheb in the Czech Republic. She is damaging the Eger. Between 1962 and 1964, the dam was built in Egertal, which was designed to provide drinking water to the city of Cheb and next to the flood protection. The function as drinking water reservoir took over from 1969, the dam Horka. Skalka has since served as a water heater for the industry in the Cheb area and was released for recreational purposes.
