Hochwasserrückhaltebecken Treysa-Ziegenhain, Flood detention basin in Schwalm-Eder-Kreis, Germany.
The Treysa-Ziegenhain detention basin spans across the landscape where the Wiera River meets the Schwalm River, managing water flow in northern Hesse.
The construction of this water management facility followed the municipal reforms of 1970, when Treysa and Ziegenhain merged to form the town of Schwalmstadt.
The detention basin reflects the German engineering approach to flood prevention, integrating water management systems within the natural environment of Schwalm-Eder district.
This infrastructure protects local communities from flooding during heavy rainfall periods and maintains stable water levels throughout the Schwalm river system.
The facility operates near the historic Totenkirche church, combining modern flood control technology with the medieval architecture of Schwalmstadt.
