      The Niederfinow Ship Lift, commissioned on March 21, 1934, is the oldest operating ship lift in Germany. Located in Niederfinow (Barnim), the lift overcomes a height difference of 36 meters between the highest reaches (Lehnitz Lock to the lift) and the Oder reaches (lift to Hohensaaten Locks) of the Havel-Oder Waterway at km 77.89.

      The ship lift is a protected industrial monument. In December 2007, it received the first "Historic Landmark of Civil Engineering in Germany" award from the Federal Chamber of Engineers.
