Tips from the Community
The originally Romanesque chapel today serves as a museum for a huge and many other Chagall windows. The history of the window is exciting: In 1970, it was decided to demolish the dilapidated building adjacent to the chapel. The chapel was then restored. Due to the demolition, the chapel was open to the east. Marc Chagall was commissioned to close the opening with a stained-glass window, the Window of Peace, completed in 1976.

This lock is precision work. Shortly afterward, it's best to cross to the opposite side of the canal to safely backtrack a bit and view the boat lift from below. This way, you can avoid the road.

A very beautiful cycle path along an impressive monument to the history of technology. To overcome the difference in elevation, 17 locks were built into the canal. Each of these 17 locks had its own lockkeeper. The charming lockkeeper's houses that line the canal give an idea of the comfortable, prosperous lives the lockkeepers led.
