The Linne weir and lock complex form a set of waterworks to regulate the Meuse in the Dutch province of Limburg, for the inland shipping that takes place there. The complex is located in the municipality of Maasgouw on the municipal border with the municipality of Roermond. Osen is a hamlet near the lock.

The complex consists of a weir, a hydroelectric power station with four turbines and a lock. The lock connects the Maas with the Maas located downstream after it has meandered around the Lus van Linne.

Located downstream is the weir and lock complex Roermond. Shipping can navigate the Maas using Sluis Linne and Sluis Roermond, whereby the meander of the Maas is cut off at Linne. West of the lock are two more lock chambers of Sluis Heel that connect the Maas with the Lateraalkanaal Linne-Buggenum. Shipping has an even shorter route via this lock and this canal.

From Maastricht to Venlo there are only four (4!) bridges over the Meuse, plus a few ferries (most of which only operate during the summer months) - and the route over this weir and the lock just beyond!
There is only pedestrian and bicycle traffic here, it is very quiet, while the bridges or ferries are always busy.

Stand 06/20 will be built there. The path is still passable. Benches invite you to rest. The weir is pretty to look at. You can also stop at the weir at a few points and watch everything. There is always something to see.

Watch out for pedestrians and in wet weather the bridge can be slippery.
