Stanovnice, Stausee in Tschechien
Stanovnice is a reservoir created in a valley of the Czech Mountains south of Karolinka, built between 1977 and 1985 to supply drinking water. The dam stands 38 meters (about 125 feet) tall and spans 390 meters (about 1280 feet), holding water across a surface area of about 55 hectares (around 136 acres).
The dam was constructed in the late 1970s to meet growing demand for drinking water in the region. A small hydroelectric power plant with two turbines was added in 1995, providing clean energy to the local area.
The reservoir serves the local communities as both a vital water source and a quiet place to connect with nature. Visitors can observe how the site demonstrates the relationship between human infrastructure and the natural landscape that surrounds it.
Visitors can walk across the dam and enjoy views of the water and surrounding mountains. The area is accessible via walking trails around the site, with the landscape remaining open and free to explore.
An ancient yew tree estimated at around 800 years old grows about three kilometers southeast of the dam in this landscape of modern infrastructure. The tree stands as a silent witness to centuries of forest history in the region.
