The Kronenburger See was created between 1973 and 1976 as a cross-border joint project between the two federal states of North Rhine-Westphalia and Rhineland Palatinate. It serves primarily as a flood retention basin for the approximately 77 square kilometers large catchment area of the Kyll and Taubkyll and to this extent as flood protection for Kronenburg, but above all for the underlying localities in Rhineland-Palatinate.
