Ivailovgrad Reservoir is one of the largest water reservoirs in Bulgaria. It is located in the eastern Rhodope Mountains, 20 kilometres (12 mi) northwest of the town of Ivailovgrad.
The reservoir is impounded by the Ivaylovgrad Dam, which was built from 1959 until 1964 for hydroelectricity generation.
