The Wallroda dam is a dam in the Free State of Saxony . The dammed body of water is the Steinbach , a left tributary of the Große Röder .

General

The dam was built from 1986 to 1989 in Wallroda near Radeberg and south of Großröhrsdorf for the industrial water supply for agriculture (irrigation) and fishing. As a result, the Alte Arnsdorfer Straße , which led from northern Arnsdorf directly to Kleinröhrsdorf , was flooded and permanently interrupted. Out of town mostly unpaved it is on both sides of the lake more than small Röhrsdorfer road and Stauseeweg as Wirtschaftsweg present.

The dam was commissioned in 1989. Additional functions of the dam today are flood protection and the low water elevation of the Großer Röder. The dam is divided by a railway embankment with a railway bridge on the Kamenz-Pirna route . The water flows through this bridge from the smaller eastern part of the dam to the larger western part, which is closed by the dam.

Building

The barrier structure of the Wallroda dam is a 10 meter high and 200 meter long dam made of sand and gravel. It has an inclined, internal PVC film seal.
