Eye-catcher and highlight! Only pedestrians and cyclists are allowed on the dam wall, so no cars! In the dark, the dam wall is illuminated (see photos). "The dam continues to hold the world record as the "longest building permanently illuminated with color changes". In 2014, to mark the 100th anniversary, 39 LED spotlights were installed in the upper outlets. Every evening, after dark, you can marvel at the fantastic play of colors ."

Worth seeing!

The dam is the tourist highlight at the Edersee with good places to stop for refreshments.

Old dam wall. A real monument to German engineering. Usually very well attended.
