    Tips

    May 2, 2025

    The 400-meter-long Eder Dam was built between 1908 and 1914. After the bombing in 1943, the destroyed dam wall was rebuilt that same year. To this day, it secures the water supply of the Weser and the Mittelland Canal, serves as flood protection, and generates electricity.
