Верхнецнинская плотина, Federal heritage dam in Vyshny Volochyok, Russia.

The Verkhnetsninskaya Dam spans the Tsna River with granite walls and wooden gates operated by a mobile winch system.

Built in 1722 under Peter the Great's decree, the dam initially had wooden structures before being covered with stone during Catherine II's reign in 1786.

The dam forms an integral part of the Vyshny Volochyok Waterway, representing early 18th-century Russian hydraulic engineering achievements.

The structure maintains water levels between the city reservoir and Lake Msta, with depths ranging from 1 to 3 meters at the dam itself.

The dam attracts numerous fish species during spring migration, creating deep pools of up to 8 meters below its walls.

Location: Vyshny Volochyok

Part of: Vyshny Volochyok Waterway
