The Lake Suviana is the largest artificial basin in the metropolitan city of Bologna and one of the largest in Emilia-Romagna. Located in the Bolognese Apennines at about 400 meters above sea level, it was formed in the early 1930s following the construction of a 90-meter-high dam for hydroelectric power generation. Today it is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the region for relaxation, swimming, and outdoor activities.
