Today the dam is used for fish rearing as well as local recreation and low water elevation. It is operated by the Thuringian long-distance water supply .
dam
The dam is a rock rubble dam with an inclined inner seal made of clay. The clay was taken from the storage space . The support body was built from slate , which also comes from the storage space. To protect against the impact of waves and erosion, the water-side edge of the dam crest was reinforced with granite gravel . From a concrete spur at the water side of a Dammfuß was grout curtain cement injected into the ground.
The extraction devices are located in a free-standing tower in the storage space, from which a tunnel leads approximately in the middle through the dam.
