The Barrage de l'Eau d'Heure, also known as the Eau d'Heure Dam, is a large dam located in the province of Hainaut, Belgium. It has created the largest artificial lake in Belgium and serves multiple purposes, including water management, hydroelectric power generation, and recreation.
The dam is situated in the Plate Taille valley, which is part of the Entre-Sambre-et-Meuse region of Belgium. It is located near the towns of Cerfontaine and Froidchapelle. The primary purpose of the dam is to regulate water flow and prevent flooding in the surrounding areas. It also provides a source of hydroelectric power generation, contributing to the region's energy supply.
The dam has created a series of interconnected artificial lakes, collectively known as Lac de l'Eau d'Heure. These lakes have become a popular recreational destination, offering activities such as swimming, boating, fishing, and hiking.
