The Gnevsdorfer receiving water is an approximately 11 km long canal between the Havel and the Elbe. It is an artificial Havel drain and serves to relocate the backwater point of the Havel downstream. This flood protection system includes the four weirs at Quitzöbel (old arm and piercing weir), Neuwerben and Gnevsdorf as well as the Havelberg lock.

Since 1936 the lock connects the inland waterway traffic of the Havel with the Elbe.
