The Lauenburg lock is the most modern and longest lock on the Elbe-Lübeck canal. It is the last (first) lock to be taken on the way to the Elbe (Baltic Sea).

Between the lock Lauenburg and the Elbe are the last 1.5 kilometers of the Elbe-Lübeck-Kanal, which pull through the Lauenburg harbor. This section has a maximum speed of four kilometers per hour.

The lock of Lauenburg is located on the east side of the B209 and with the abundant traffic you usually can not get a good look at this lock. This new lock was completed in 2006 and has replaced an old one.

If you drive on the other side of the lock instead of on the federal road, you can look at it in a relaxed manner. Access to this page is via the access to Lauenburg train station.

The lock end wall of the Lauenburg lock is made of concrete. No danger to fenders.

The Lauenburger lock is the most modern and longest lock on the Elbe-Lübeck Canal. It is the last or first lock that has to be taken on the way to the Elbe or the Baltic Sea.

The last 1.5 km of the Elbe-Lübeck Canal, which runs through the Lauenburg harbor, is located between the Lauenburg lock and the Elbe. A maximum speed of 4 km / h applies on this section.

The Lauenburg sports boat harbor offers an ideal place to take a breather after a strenuous day trip or as a starting point for a trip through the ELK. Lauenburg also has the oldest chamber lock in Europe, the Palm lock, which was part of the old Stecknitz cruise, the forerunner of the ELK.
