The water level of the Isar , which flows through Munich , was lowered by the Sylvensteinspeicher reservoir near Bad Tölz . However causeways on the Iller failed , flooding Sonthofen , parts of Augsburg and Neustadt . In Hindelang-Hinterstein the flood reached a peak not recorded in the previous 250 years . A subsequent Alpine highwater on 23-24 August 2005 again did damage to these areas . In the Vorarlberg area the Rhine flood affected Lake Constance damaging Hard and Bregenz .
