Eibenstock Dam (German: Talsperre Eibenstock) is the largest dam in the Free State of Saxony in East Germany in terms of the height of the dam above the valley floor and its reservoir is the largest in volume. The dam impounds the waters of the Zwickauer Mulde and supplies drinking water to the region of Chemnitz and Zwickau as well as providing flood protection delivering extra water during times of drought and to a lesser extent generating electricity from hydropower.
