The church tower of the village of Alt-Graun, which sunk when the lake was dammed, is an impressive photo motif at any time of the year.

In the fifties the construction of a large dam artificially joined the two lakes of Curon and Resia and the result was the submersion of the two homonymous inhabited centres. The bell tower of the Curon church still protrudes from the water and can be easily seen from this point.

The steeple of the former parish church of St. Catherine is reminiscent of the sunken village of Alt-Graun, which was destroyed due to the damming of the lake. The tower has been renovated and is now a popular landmark in Vinschgau. When the water level is very low, other ruins of the old village sometimes emerge from the lake besides the tower. Curious: The Italian Netflix series "Curion" tells a horror mystery story about Lake Reschen!
