The Gittaz Dam (pronounced "Gitta Dam") is a French arch-gravity dam located in the Beaufortain Alpine massif, in the commune of Beaufort-sur-Doron in the Savoie department in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region.

Built between 1963 and 1967, it receives the waters of the Gittaz torrent and, along with the Saint-Guérin Dam, contributes to filling the Roselend Dam. It thus forms the vast Beaufortain hydroelectric complex, whose waters are turbined at the Bâthie hydroelectric power plant near Albertville.
