From the bridge you have a great view of the Langwedel lock canal and can look up to the canal lock!
"The lock canal has a length of 8.51 km, starts at Verden and flows back into the Weser here in Baden at the so-called Weserbogen. By straightening the river, the aim was to shorten the travel times of the still important cargo shipping The project, which has already been partially implemented, began in Baden in February 1937. The first dredging began from the Weser bend in the direction of Langwedel. The farm road to the pastures east of the Weser bend was interrupted by the canal The canal bridge was built and used accordingly to create access for milkmaids etc. During the last war, the bridge stood alone in the pastures; the associated canal was only built in the early 1950s. "
"1955-1958 the lock was built under the direction of the Verden Water and Shipping Authority and completed in June 1958 as" Langwedel damming ". The lock has a usable length of 215 meters, a width of 12.36 meters and a lifting height of up to max. 5.5 meters. With the construction of the Intschede barrage and the start of lock operations, tugboat and rafting ended. Lock operations have been remote-controlled by the Minden Waterways and Shipping Office since 2010. Since then, there has been no local lock keeper If you turn right, you can stop directly at the lock. Signs explain the locks of ships and boats. "
