The four-stage Niederfinow lock staircase was the oldest lock structure at the eastern end of the apex in the Oder-Havel Canal. The western end is the Lehnitz lock near Oranienburg. The staircase was in use from 1912 to 1972. In 1934, the Niederfinow ship lift was put into operation at the same time.

Hiking
The old lock staircase can only be explored on foot.
The four-step Niederfinow lock staircase in the north of the Barnim district in Brandenburg was the oldest lock structure at the eastern end of the apex in the Oder-Havel Canal. The western end is the Lehnitz lock near Oranienburg. The staircase was in operation from 1912 to 1972. In 1934 the Niederfinow ship lift went into operation in parallel. The latter will be shut down by 2025 at the latest and replaced by the larger Niederfinow Nord ship lift, which is currently under construction.
