As a good pharaonic work, the builders decided to place a memorial obelisk with various images at the foot as a tribute to agricultural workers.

The Peñaflor dam, built in 1983 on the bed of the Guadalquivir River, is a gravity dam with a height from the foundation of 19 meters and a crest length of 236 meters. The dam has 14 spans where the boxcar-type gates are located, which are designed to close and plug large sections in holes and channels, and with high water loads. Its main feature is the rolling system on the sides, which reduces the pressure on the board when sliding.
