Brüningsen

Bruningsen has served as a rural settlement in North Rhine-Westphalia since the Middle Ages. It lies in the Möhne valley, close to the Möhne Reservoir, whose dam was completed in 1913 to supply water to the Ruhr industrial region. The reservoir became internationally known after the dam was breached during Operation Chastise in 1943, causing devastating flooding downstream. Today, the area is defined by wooded slopes, farmland and the waterway that shapes this part of the Sauerland fringe.
