When looking at the dam, the two towers are particularly striking. They give the dam a distinctive appearance compared to the other dams in the Harz. For me, it is the most beautiful dam in the Harz.

From here you have a great view of the dam, perfect for a nice photo.

With the little towers, the dam looks really picturesque. The bench next to the stamp box invites you to linger. There is also a staircase there, if you go up there you have another great view of the entire dam. Great photo opportunity
