Dziećkowice Reservoir
Highlight • Lake
The dam is 7 meters high, the maximum depth is 12 meters, and its area is 7.3 km², while the total capacity is 52.8 million m³, the average width is about 1.8 kilometers, the length of the reservoir is 4.3 kilometers.
This reservoir was created in the mid-1970s, in an excavation that is a remnant of the former sand exploitation area, and was used in mining for backfilling purposes, for the Maczki-Bór mine in Sosnowiec. The mine was extracting sand to fill the mine workings.
Earlier in this area there was a forest with many ponds and very clean spring water - the so-called riparian forest. It is powered mainly by water, discharged from the distant system of the Skawa - Soła rivers.
It is one of the cleanest reservoirs in the Silesia Province and serves as a drinking water reservoir.

In 1927, a completely new, impressive steel structure was built, built by the Krakow-based company "Zieleniewski", and a loading installation for barges that headed to the Vistula, and then - further into the country.
He was blown up in September 1939 by the retreating Polish Army from the "Śląsk" operational group.
