Route Vauban, the outlet lock of the Queich

The water of the Queich played an important role in the defense of Landau Fortress. Through a sophisticated system of locks, it was able to be channeled into the flood basins and thus completely flood the area in front of the fortress or turn other parts into impassable swampy meadows.

If the enemy got to the works despite the water and the resistance of the defenders, the trenches in front of the main wall and between the outworks could be flooded with fast-flowing water up to 2.50 meters deep by opening sluices, making it possible to cross them These trenches are thwarted by enemy stormtroopers.
The inlet lock to the west and the outlet lock to the east of the fortress (this place here) are still preserved today.
