Tips
Located directly on the Saale cycle path or on the Baltic Sea-Upper Bavaria cycle path / well-paved (road bike-compatible) cycle path along the dam.
The final structure of the Saale Cascade, completed in 1945, the dam also serves as the lower basin of the Hohenwarte I and II pumped storage power plants.
It is a gravity dam made of concrete with a crown overflow divided into 3 fields and attached weir flaps for the purpose of flood relief. A run-of-river power plant with two machine stations and a total output of 3.4 MW when the working water is delivered to the Saale is integrated.translated by
