      The Alte Kinsach pumping station was built in 1947 to ensure the internal drainage of the dike hinterland in the event of a flood. The outflows of the two connected receiving waters, Alte Kinsach and Dunkgraben, are forwarded to the Danube as a free-flowing passage through low water and medium water levels via a river bed to the east of the pumping station building.

        A pumping station is a lifting device for water. It is one of the oldest man-made technical systems. The main area of application is irrigation for agriculture, when the fields are higher than the water (e.g. river), but also the opposite of this, the drainage of land (e.g. from marshes or swamps) or land reclamation or drainage of lowlands and marshes on the sea and on rivers. The water is raised in order to create a gradient for its drainage, for example into the sea.
