The facility, built between 1953 and 1956, dams the Weser river (head of approx. 5.20 meters). An integrated run-of-river power plant uses the water power with three turbines for sustainable electricity generation.

The small inland harbor is located on the Weser River, with moorings for smaller ships and boats and adjacent green spaces. The area is easily accessible via the Weser Cycle Path and offers a short, worthwhile detour to the waterfront—with views of the quiet harbor activity and the scenic riverside area.
