Keddara Dam, Embankment dam in Boumerdès Province, Algeria.

The Keddara Dam stretches 470 meters in length across the Boudouaou River, with a substantial base width of 380 meters and clay core structure.

The Yugoslav construction company Hidrotehnika built the Keddara Dam between 1982 and 1987 as part of Algeria's water infrastructure development.

The dam forms an integral part of northern Algeria's water management system, supporting agricultural practices and water distribution to surrounding communities.

The reservoir accumulates 146.5 million cubic meters of water, providing essential resources for irrigation and municipal use in Algiers, 35 kilometers west.

Water flows into Keddara Dam from two adjacent structures: the Hamiz Dam 7.6 kilometers west and the Beni Amrane Dam 17 kilometers east.

Height: 106 m
