You should definitely watch the ships and boats being locked. The heavy gates rise up from the Saale with a mighty force and the water falls with a rush into the depths. And almost playfully, even the heaviest of boats lifts itself up many meters to the height of the dammed Saale. A spectacle without equal and completely free!

I often find technical structures like this interesting. Currently, extensive construction has been carried out in the area of the lock.

The first lock was built in 1564. Today's lock was built from 1939-1941.
