Tips
The Gerlachsbacher Dam, also known as the Eisenqueller Dam, appears to have been an ambitious construction project that was never completed due to political circumstances.The idea behind the dam - collecting water in wet periods and releasing it in a targeted manner during dry periods - suggests that attempts were made early on to manage water sustainably. The fact that a wetland biotope has now formed shows how unfinished structures can integrate into natural landscapes over time.
