Curon Venosta

A submerged 14th-century church tower in Italy. In 1950, a dam for a hydroelectric power plant was constructed near the village of Curon Venosta. As a result of this project, a large artificial lake was created, flooding the surrounding areas. The village itself was relocated to higher ground, but the church tower was left in its original location and now stands alone, rising above the surface of the lake.
