    The barrage was put into operation in 1978, it is located in the new dike line and protects the island of Krautsand and the towns of Assel, Drochtersen and Dornbusch. It was developed as a result of the severe storm surge of 1962.

      The Ruthenstromstromwerk at Drochtersen is in the Ruthenstrom. It is part of a flood protection concept on the Lower Elbe, influenced by the tides, from the Geesthacht barrage to the mouth of the river in the North Sea, which was developed in February 1962 due to the severe storm surge.
