Koprinka Reservoir, Water reservoir in Stara Zagora Province, Bulgaria
The Koprinka Reservoir extends over 11.2 square kilometers with multiple branches and bays, reaching depths between 44 and 78 meters at 390 meters elevation.
The reservoir construction finished in 1955, submerging the ancient Thracian city of Seuthopolis, which served as the capital of the Odrysian kingdom.
The Regional Museum of History preserves numerous archaeological artifacts recovered from Seuthopolis before the reservoir filled the area.
The reservoir supplies water for irrigation and industrial purposes while generating electricity through its hydroelectric system and supporting recreational activities.
An architectural project proposes building a circular wall around submerged Seuthopolis to make the archaeological site accessible to visitors by boat.
