摘要:The Salto of Jandula is one of the paradigmatic civil works of the 20th century. Its characteristic hydroelectric power station attached to the dam has made it an indisputable reference among architects, engineers and historians. And this polyhedral look is not accidental, since from its beginning, it was proposed as a multidisciplinary project related to large territorial plans. Irrigation in the Guadalquivir valley and an ambitious project to channel the river between Córdoba and Seville were the reasons why this work was built, but the origin of the unique solution that characterizes its hydroelectric use is less known and is actually a result decanted throughout successive projects.
