The water of the White Lauter, which is diverted shortly after Gutenberg, is carried over the valley of the Black Lauter via this aqueduct. The water is then led through a tunnel to the Wachtelberg engine and is still used today to generate electricity. Colloquially, the aqueduct is also called the "elephant trough"
