This tunnel-canal, classified on the list of historical monuments, is 681 meters long. It avoids a long detour made by the Saône.

Its construction was the subject of two phases of work, the war campaigns having interrupted the construction site. It started in 1838 and ended in 1882.

View from Ormoy-Richecourt bridge

Highlight • River

This bridge marks the entry into the town of Ormoy. It spans the Saône and its canal. The bridge deck rests on three cut stone arches and was built in 1844. It offers a lovely view of the two rivers. We can clearly see the difference in level between the Saône and the canal. The boats only circulate on the canal which was also built with the aim of making the Saône navigable.

It was quite bumpy on country roads. No comparison with the Canal des Vosges.
