The article deals with the issue of the construction of Lipno I and Lipno II dams between 1951–1959. In 1960 and in the subsequent years all finishing and landscaping works were completed. The dam lake has been called the “South–Bohemian Sea” or sometimes also rather pejoratively “the sea of the poor” since then! In spite of that Lipno Lake has had a number of admirers from the Czech Republic as well as abroad and these like practising summer, and recently also winter sports in the vicinity of the lake, which is beneficial for the local citizens.
