Activity information

The now defunct Goldfuss water reservoir was built in 1770 as a strengthening source of water under the Belian water reservoir.

It was mainly intended to strengthen the supply of water to drive the towers in the Belianska valley. It was located on the left side of the road to Banská Belá under the current Seven women sewage sludge. Like the Belian water reservoir, it served the needs of stupas, mills, and smelters in Banská Belá. Currently, it is neglected, it is overgrown up to the crown of the embankment, as well as its surroundings. The Small Goldfuss Reservoir is a national cultural monument in the territory, which is included in the UNESCO World Cultural and Natural Heritage List.
