    This dam, built in 1955, is known as the "Kulturstau Liedern" (Cultural Dam of Songs). It is only in temporary operation from April 15 to November 1 of this year. The water level is raised by approximately 1.4 m by installing dams in the upstream watercourse.

    In the interim (November to April), this dam functions solely as a barrage. Thus, aquatic organisms such as fish and microorganisms cannot pass through the transverse structure. Therefore, the Borken district is currently examining various options for fish passage.
