Image: Village resurfaces from the Sylvenstein water reservoir

Strollers walk through the remnants of a village in the drained Sylvenstein water reservoir in Fall, Germany on Dec. 11. The inhabitants of the village of Fall were resettled when the valley was flooded for the construction of a reservoir to generate energy and for protective measures against flood waters in the mid 1950s. The village of Fall temporarily resurfaced after the water level subsided due to work on a nearby construction site.
