The first lock between the Haussee and the Stolpsee was built in connection with the navigability of the Woblitz in 1752. In order to accommodate the growing shipping on the waters there, a lock was built between 1879 and 1882 according to the Finow standard, reconstructed in 1907 and renovated and rebuilt in 1976. Before the reconstruction in 1976, the lock chamber had sloping gravity walls made of bricks with driven wooden piles for mooring the ships.

The first lock at this point was built in 1752 when the Woblitz was made navigable. The lock was built from 1779 to 1782 according to Finow dimensions and rebuilt in 1976. The system is a self-service lock
