The Jezioro Paczkowskie ( Patschkauer Reservoir ) is a reservoir in Poland . It dams the Glatzer Neisse ( Nysa Kłodzka ) northwest of the town of Paczków and is the third of its kind on the middle reaches of this often flood-leading river.
The Jezioro Paczkowskie consists of a cascade of two reservoirs:
- The Kozielno reservoir ( Zbiornik Kozielno ) is located three kilometers northwest of Paczków and is the upper of the two lakes. About half of it is in the area of the Opole and Lower Silesian Voivodeships .
- Immediately to the north-west of this is the Topola reservoir ( Zbiornik Topola ). This is located on the territory of the rural community Kamieniec Ząbkowicki in the Lower Silesian Voivodeship. The island in the lake forms a refuge for water birds.
The Jezioro Paczkowskie was built between 1995 and 2003. Both lakes are used for flood protection, water reservoirs, power generation and recreation. After completion, planning began to create a tourist infrastructure and use it by sailors .
