    The Ricobayo Dam is located on the Esla River, in the province of Zamora (Castilla y León), and is part of the Iberdrola hydroelectric system.
    Completed in 1934, it was one of the major hydraulic engineering projects of the 20th century in Spain.

        hydroelectric dam in the Ricobayo reservoir that feeds water from the Esla river to produce electricity. Spectacular view of the huge concrete structure in the deep gorge of the river.
