View of Klingenberg Reservoir

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Klingenberg dam dams the Wilde Weißeritz in the Eastern Ore Mountains and is used to produce drinking water and to protect against flooding. Swimming is not allowed here, but beautiful hiking trails lead around the water. Construction work began in 1908 and was completed in 1914. The length of its crown is around three hundred meters and is just over thirty meters above the valley floor. Restaurants nearby invite tired hikers to linger.

Idyllic Church
