Popovac is a reservoir on the Garešnica river in Bjelovar-Bilogora County, between the villages of Trnovitički Popovac, which gave it its name, Veliki Prokop and Dišnik. The river flows through the lake.
How it formed
The lake was made in 1985, when a dam was built across the Garešnica. It holds back floodwater and supplies fishponds, and it is shallow over most of its area.
