Dam at Okhta River, Regional cultural heritage dam on Kommuny Street, Saint Petersburg, Russia.
The Dam at Okhta River spans across the waterway with concrete structures and reinforced barriers designed for water flow management and flood prevention.
The construction of this water management system began in the early twentieth century as part of Saint Petersburg's infrastructure development to address frequent flooding issues.
The dam structure represents a combination of engineering achievements and architectural elements that reflect the technical capabilities of early twentieth-century Russian construction methods.
The structure maintains water levels throughout the year and prevents flooding in nearby residential areas while supporting local recreational activities such as fishing.
The dam incorporates thirty water purification installations that process the water flowing through the system, contributing to the environmental protection of the surrounding area.
