The structure was built in 1914 in Commissioned as a connection between the Dortmund-Ems Canal and the Rhine. The Rhine-Herne Canal has been subject to various modifications for mining and traffic reasons over the past 85 years Bank structures made of steel and stone. ... "

    Hiking

    Very soon after the beginning of industrialization, the mines and the flourishing heavy industry in cities such as Herne, Gelsenkirchen and Essen lacked an economic transport route. Construction of the RHK began in 1909.
    The Emscher was artificially laid back then and today runs for long stretches directly parallel to the canal, which overcomes a height difference of approx. 36m over a length of 45 km.
