Edersee Dam (original) (raw)
The Edersee Dam is a hydroelectric dam spanning the Eder river in northern Hesse, Germany. Constructed between 1908 and 1914, it lies near the small town of Waldeck at the northern edge of the Kellerwald. Breached by Allied bombs during World War II, it was rebuilt during the war, and today generates hydroelectric power and regulates water levels for shipping on the Weser river. * Overflowing Edersee Dam in spring 2021 * The Edersee today (low water level)

| dbo:abstract | The Edersee Dam is a hydroelectric dam spanning the Eder river in northern Hesse, Germany. Constructed between 1908 and 1914, it lies near the small town of Waldeck at the northern edge of the Kellerwald. Breached by Allied bombs during World War II, it was rebuilt during the war, and today generates hydroelectric power and regulates water levels for shipping on the Weser river. At low water in late summers of dry years the remnants of three villages (Asel, Bringhausen, and Berich) and a bridge across the original river bed submerged when the lake was filled in 1914 can be seen. Descendants of those buried there go to visit the graves of their ancestors. * Overflowing Edersee Dam in spring 2021 * The Edersee today (low water level) (en) Le barrage de l’Edertal et son lac de retenue, l’Edersee, forment le second plus grand lac de retenue en superficie (11,8 km2) et la troisième plus grosse retenue de barrage (capacité de 199 300 000 m3) d’Allemagne. Cet ouvrage d'art, d'une hauteur de 48 m, est aménagé sur l’Eder, un affluent de la Fulda, à proximité de la ville de Waldeck dans l’arrondissement de Waldeck-Frankenberg (Hesse septentrionale). Le barrage de l’Edertal (EdT) est propriété du Service Fédéral des Eaux et de la Navigation, représenté par le Service de la navigation de Hann. Münden. Ce barrage a pour fonction essentielle d’alimenter en eau la Haute-weser et le Mittellandkanal. Ses fonctions secondaires sont la régulation du plan d’eau amont, la production d’énergie électrique et la plaisance. Situé au cœur du , le lac de retenue offre un paysage magnifique depuis le château de Waldeck. Durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, ce barrage fut détruit par des bombes rebondissantes larguées par la Royal Air Force lors de l’opération Chastise. Partiellement détruit, il fut reconstruit en quelques mois grâce à des travailleurs forcés de l’Organisation Todt. (fr) Ederdammen är en fördämning belägen i Tyskland cirka 15 kilometer sydost om staden Korbach i nordvästra Hessen. Dammbyggnaden har vid grunden en längd av 270 meter, vid murkronan en längd av 400 meter samt en höjd av upp till 48 meter. Innan dammbyggnaden påbörjades under året 1909 skapades året 1908 en järnvägslinje till platsen. Efter fem år byggtid fastslogs datumet för den officiella invigningen till 15 augusti 1914. Den ägde rum utan festligheter på grund av Första världskrigets början den 1 augusti 1914. Efter kriget genomförde kejsare Vilhelm II den 24 augusti 1918 ett besök av den färdiga dammbyggnaden. Den blev senare känd för att ha blivit förstörd i det omskrivna bombanfallet Operation Chastise 17 maj 1943, utfört av RAF:s 617:e bombflottilj med Wing commander (ung. överstelöjtnant) Guy Gibson i spetsen. Operation Chastise har med titeln The Dam Busters filmats 1955 med Richard Todd som Guy Gibson. Filmen behandlar anfallen mot de tyska dammarna vid Möhne, Sorpe, Eder och Ennepe. (sv) |
