The reservoir was created in the Middle Ages in smaller form as water storage for two mills below. In the 1870s, the dam was raised to increase the filling volume of the lake. Thus, the Eckbachtal was better protected against floods, which could occur especially in the spring after snowy winters. Today, the length of the reservoir is 560 m, its maximum width 32 m.

The Eckbachweiher ensured the operation of the two mills even in periods of drought. The upper mill directly below the dam has gone down. The Felsenmühle 800 m east is a large, well restored and attractively completed building complex, which is grouped around a cobbled courtyard and operated as a hotel-restaurant.
