The lock dam is located between the villages of Hermeton-sur-Meuse and Hastière in the Namur commune of Hastière in the Walloon region. This lock dam is the first one that one encounters in Belgium after crossing the Franco-Belgian border 4.05 km away (source: fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barrage-%C3%A9cluse_d%27Hasti%C3%A8re )
