The reservoir holds a maximum of 761 million cubic metres of water. The dam, which generates 142 million kWh of electricity per year, is 94 metres high, 7.5 metres thick at its base and 3 metres thick at its crest. The village that can be seen adjacent to the lake, however, is not the eponymous village of Sainte-Croix-de-Verdon but Les Salles-sur-Verdon. The original village is now completely underwater. The other villages around the lake are: * Sainte-Croix-du-Verdon * Bauduen * Les Salles-sur-Verdon (new village) ==See also== * Verdon (river) * Verdon Gorge 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lake of Sainte-Croix」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
