    Gleesen-Papenburg Lateral Canal.

    Planning began in 1936, and construction began in 1938. Construction was halted in 1942 because it was deemed non-essential to the war effort. Construction was halted after the war ended.

    However, there are discussions about completing the canal if the economic situation requires it.

    You see this wide, calm expanse of water to the left and right of the bridge and you don't even know what it is.
