The Ourthe Dam is a hydraulic dam located in the municipalities of La Roche-en-Ardenne and Houffalize.

The project to build a dam dates back to 1872 but was never followed through. Construction of the current structure began only in 1953. It was completed in 1958 and a waste treatment building was added in 1985. It is 116 meters long and 16 meters high. The dam was built to supply drinking water to the entire region.

The lake is a vast 47-hectare body of water accessible for fishing, kayaking, and canoeing. It represents 3 million cubic meters of water fed by the Western and Eastern Ourthe Rivers.
