The Vajont Dam is a disused dam in northern Italy. It is one of the tallest dams in the world, with a height of 262 m . It is in the valley of the Vajont River under Monte Toc, in the municipality of Erto e Casso, 100 kilometres north of Venice.
The dam was conceived in the 1920s and eventually built between 1957 and 1960 by Società Adriatica di Elettricità , at the time the electricity supply and distribution monopoly in northeastern Italy. The engineer was Carlo Semenza . In 1962 the dam was nationalized and came under the control of ENEL as part of the Italian Ministry for Public Works.
