Kráľová
Vodná nádrž Kráľová is located on the border of the Trnava and Nitra regions between the towns of Sereď and Šaľa.

Nádrž Kráľová and the hydroelectric power plant bearing the same name were put into operation in 1985. In addition to its use as a power plant, gravel and sand were extracted here. Water from the reservoir is also used for irrigation, and the dam naturally serves as flood protection. Approximately every 10 to 15 years, the reservoir is drained for maintenance. It is truly an interesting event, and many visitors come here out of curiosity to observe what lies on its bottom. For example, a large number of freshwater mussels can be found here.
