Jez v Bartošovicích

Jez v Bartošovicích, Water barrier in Bartošovice, Czech Republic

Jez v Bartošovicích is a water barrier built to control stream flow and maintain steady water levels in the local waterway. The structure features a straightforward design made from concrete and stone materials.

The sources record no construction date for the weir. It stands at river kilometre 50.9 on the Odra, north-northwest of Bartošovice in the Moravian Gate valley, and is made of reinforced concrete, 3.5 m high and 21 m long. A millrace for the nearby Bartošovice mill was built as part of the weir on the right bank.

The weir feeds a millrace on the right bank that once supplied the nearby Bartošovice mill; the race now holds a small hydroelectric plant with a single turbine producing 0.423 GWh a year. Canoeists who run the Odra here must portage around the structure, carrying their boats on either bank.

The weir lies on the Odra at river kilometre 50.9, north-northwest of Bartošovice in the Moravian Gate valley. It is not passable by boat; canoeists must portage on either bank, and there are stones in the tailwater below. A millrace for the nearby Bartošovice mill branches off on the right bank.

The weir sits at river kilometre 50.9 of the Odra and is 21 m long and 3.5 m high. On the right bank a millrace branches off to supply the nearby Bartošovice mill, and within that channel a small hydroelectric plant with a single turbine generates 0.423 GWh a year. Boats cannot shoot the weir; canoeists portage on either side, and there are stones in the tailwater.
