Old Niegripp Lock

Highlight • Monument

Old Niegripp lock on the Ihle Canal (Old Niegripper Canal)
An old lock system, unfortunately only remains.

Hohenwarthe Lock on the Mittelland Canal

Highlight • Structure

An impressive double lock, it closes the eastern section of the Mittelland Canal to the east and serves to overcome the different water levels between the Mittelland Canal and the Elbe-Havel Canal, which begins 200 m further east.
