    The Montech water slope is an old boat lift that facilitated commercial river navigation by avoiding the passage of five locks. Today, it is converted into a museum, playground and picnic area. It is an ideal place for a fun break.

      Absolutely worth seeing technology, but is probably only a museum.

        The Pente d'Eau is the first water wedge lift in the world to bypass the lock staircase at Montech for commercial shipping.
        However, the lift had to be shut down after a fire in 2009. Whether and when a repair will take place is still unclear. (Wikipedia)
