The flood retention basin is intended to improve the flood protection on the Breg and the Danube. It will significantly reduce the flood peaks of the 100-year flood. It is a dry pool that is filled only at high tide. The possible storage capacity of the basin is 4.7 million m³. The storage area will then be 70 ha in size. The client is the state of Baden-Württemberg.

The dam is slightly curved and has a height of 18 m above the water bottom. The dam is built for fish consistently. These should be able to swim at normal water level through one of three passages, the so-called eco-scrolls.
