The Heilenbecker Reservoir is the oldest drinking water reservoir in Southwestphalia. The historic gravity dam was built between 1894 and 1896 according to the designs of the well-known Aachen professor Otto Intze. It is nestled in the wooded nature on the border between the towns of Ennepetal and Breckerfeld in the Ennepe-Ruhr district (North Rhine-Westphalia).
