Vranov Reservoir, Hydroelectric reservoir in South Moravia, Czech Republic.

The Vranov Reservoir spans across the Dyje River valley, providing water retention and flood management for the South Moravian region at 380 meters elevation.

The construction of Vranov Reservoir during World War II marked a significant development in the region's water management and energy production infrastructure.

The reservoir area hosts regular summer festivals where local residents share traditional Moravian music, food, and customs with visitors from across Europe.

Multiple access points around the reservoir offer boat rentals, swimming areas, and camping facilities, with the main visitor center located near Vranov nad Dyji.

The reservoir's dam reduced a major flood flow from 551 to 234 cubic meters per second in 2006, demonstrating its critical role in regional water management.
