      The Kleine Kinzig dam (Kleine-Kinzig-Talsperre) is a dam that was put into operation in 1985 in Reinerzau near Freudenstadt in the Black Forest, (Baden-Württemberg). It serves to supply drinking water, protect against flooding, raise low water levels and generate electricity from hydropower. The Kleine Kinzig is dammed; the dam belongs to the Klein Kinzig association. The dam is a rockfill dam with an asphalt concrete inner seal (bituminous core seal). The dam made of granite and red sandstone was poured from May 1981 to October 1982. The first impoundment lasted from December 13, 1982 to June 1984.
      The flood relief is housed in a tower with a circular overflow in the storage space, which is connected to a tunnel. The installed capacity of the power station is 580 kW. The dam supplies between 3 and 8 million m³ of drinking water annually.
      The reservoir is about 3 km long, 450 m wide and has a maximum depth of 60 m.
      The dam has a fore dam with a 15 m high dam made of talus material.
