    Eseltal flood retention basin.
    The structure seals off the approximately 4 km long Eseltal dry valley, which begins near the village of Steinenkirch in Böhmenkirch and to which only the shorter, also dry Ulmer Valley and, shortly before the dam, the approximately 2.5 km long Benzenhauser Teich dry valley from the outskirts of Böhmenkirch runs in. The catchment area is about 11.5 km². It is located on the karstified White Jurassic plateau of the Swabian Alb in the Albuch natural area.
