The Kleine Brombachsee is part of the Brombachsee reservoir and one of the two barrages of the Großer Brombachsee . It is located in the Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen district in Bavaria .

geography

The reservoir is located in Middle Franconia , about 40 kilometers south-southwest of Nuremberg and 5 kilometers east of Gunzenhausen .

properties

A dam in the east dams the Kleiner Brombachsee, its level fluctuates only slightly. The target is 410.6  m above sea level. NN and the water is, measured down to the level of the original brook valley, up to 13.4 meters deep. The deepest parts of the lake are even on 388- 387  m above sea level. NN , namely where sand was mined in pits for decades before the lake was flooded. The length of the shore is mentioned as 8.5 kilometers.

The Kleine Brombachsee drains into the Großer Brombachsee, the level of which fluctuates more strongly by up to 7 meters, between a storage target of 410.5  m above sea level. NN and a descent target to 403.5  m above sea level. NN .

NN and a length of 1.1 kilometers. To protect the barrier structure from being washed under, there is a cut-off wall below the core that extends down to the bedrock. Above the bottom outlet at the deepest point of the valley, roughly in the middle of the dam, there is an operating building. A flood relief with two hydraulically driven lifting segments is located further south in the dam.
