The water network of the Stiller Bach near Weingarten in the Ravensburg district in Baden-Württemberg is one of the oldest canal systems in Germany. It was expertly constructed by Benedictine monks in the Middle Ages to supply water to the Weingarten monastery and has remained almost unchanged to this day. The area of the water network is around 25 km2 and includes ten canals and around 20 ponds. The main construction period of the Stiller Bach and its sub-waterways extends over a period of more than half a millennium (11th to 17th centuries).Source: Wikipedia
