Koudiat Acerdoune Dam, Gravity dam in Lakhdaria, Algeria.

The Koudiat Acerdoune Dam rises 121 meters high and stretches 493 meters across the Isser River in Bouïra Province, forming a substantial water barrier.

The construction of Koudiat Acerdoune Dam occurred between 2002 and 2008, utilizing roller-compacted concrete techniques to establish this water management structure.

The dam carries different names across languages, including سد كدية أسردون in Arabic and Barrage de Koudiat Acerdoune in French, reflecting Algeria's linguistic diversity.
