    Halsbrücke Boat Lift.

    Information:

    Built in 1788/89 in the Halsbrücke area, this boat lift is the first structure of its kind in the world. From here, ore barges were towed (pulled) to the Halsbrücke ironworks. The structure was in operation until 1868. It was then reconstructed in 1988.
