Santillana reservoir, also known as Manzanares el Real reservoir ((スペイン語:embalse de Santillana) or ''embalse de Manzanares el Real''), is a body of water along the Manzanares river located in the municipalities of Manzanares el Real and Soto del Real, in the Community of Madrid, in the centre of Spain. It has a maximum surface of 1052 ha, the longest distance between opposites shores reaches 30 km, and the total volume of the reservoir is 91 hm³. The first dam was built in 1907, but in year 1969 a new and higher dam was built. This new construction was 5 m higher, which allowed the reservoir to have a volume as twice as larger than before. The second and present dam, built in a short period of 12 months, began its service in 1971. Its foundations are located at an altitude of 856,5 m and the highest point of the dam is at 896,5 m, with a total length of 1355 m. Belonging to the Canal de Isabel II public company, it regulates the flow of Manzanares river and an important part of the water supply to the city of Madrid and its surroundings. Smaller rivers Samburiel and Arroyo del Mediano also flow into the reservoir, which is part of the natural protected area called Parque Regional de la Cuenca Alta del Manzanares. It is also part of the Site of Community Importance (SCI) ''Manzanares basin'', with code ES3110004.〔http://natura2000.eea.europa.eu/Natura2000/SDF.aspx?site=ES3110004〕 ==Gallery== File:Presa embalse santillana.JPG|New dam and old dam partially flooded.
