The Lipno Dam
The Lipno Dam, sometimes called South Bohemian sea, is the largest water area in the Czech Republic. Between 1925 – 1959, the 25 meters high dam was built near the village Lipno nad Vltavou to prevent the area from floods. Major part of the dam is also a part of National park Šumava and there is no doubt that it was the beautiful natural surroundings to make Lipno one of the most popular tourist attractions.
