Gruža Lake, Reservoir in Šumadija District, Serbia.
The artificial lake spans 9.34 square kilometers and holds 65 million cubic meters of water, formed by damming the Gruža River near Kragujevac.
The construction of the reservoir commenced after a spatial development plan in 1976, becoming operational in 1983 to supply water for Kragujevac residents.
The surrounding region maintains traditional agricultural practices while the lake supports local fishing communities and outdoor recreational activities.
The water treatment facility in Pajsijević village processes and distributes drinking water to 250,000 residents in Kragujevac and neighboring settlements.
The lake contains substantial fish populations, evidenced by the capture of a 117-kilogram wels catfish measuring 2.4 meters in June 2018.
