Curon: The remains of a village have been discovered for the first time in 71 years after the lake drained temporarily. The village was submerged beneath an Italian lake for decades. Lake Resia is an artificial lake in the western portion of South Tyrol, Italy, approximately 2 km south of the Reschen Pass.

Locals spotted the final traces of Curon, BBC reported.

Authorities, around 71 years ago, built a dam and merged two nearby lakes as a result of which Curon was lost to the waters. Curon's population was displaced as more than 160 homes were submerged.

Curon housed hundreds at one point in time before it was flooded to create a hydroelectric plant in 1950.

Social media users posted pictures of the lost village which featured remains of steps, walls and cellars at the former settlement.

Lake Resia has the 14th-century church tower emerging from its waters and it is a major tourist attraction.
