      Together with the Rautenstrauch Canal, from which it also receives its water, the Clarenbach Canal forms the Lindenthal Canal system, which has an overflow at Universitätsstraße leading to the Aachener Weiher. The canals create a radial connection between the inner and outer green belts of Cologne, viewing water as an urban design element. The Clarenbach Canal begins at the Italian Cultural Institute and merges westward into the Rautenstrauch Canal.

      The entire system was realized in 1923 by the Director of Horticulture, Fritz Encke, who thus implemented the idea of Fritz Schumacher's general development plan from 1920 to 1923. The first section of the canal, starting from the Aachener Weiher, was planted with horse chestnut trees at the time of its construction.
