Landgrave Carl von Hessen-Kassel, who ruled from 1670 until his death in 1730, initiated the planning of a shipping route between the Weser and Lahn at the beginning of the 18th century. The canal's starting point was to be the Huguenot town of Sieburg, which he founded in 1699 (Carlshafen from 1717, Karlshafen from 1935, Bad Karlshafen since 1977). In fact, the ambitious project between Karlshafen and Hümme was implemented as the Landgraf-Carl Canal between 1710 and 1723, but only continued as far as the Schöneberg near Hofgeismar until Carl's death in 1730. After that, the idea of a Central-Germany connection exclusively through Hessian territory was dropped.
