    History

    The present-day Elisabethfehn Canal was built between 1855 and 1893 and runs from the Küstenkanal near Kampe via Kamperfehn, Reekenfeld, and Elisabethfehn to the Sagter Ems near the Roggenberg farming community. Since 1935, the eastern section of the Hunte-Ems Canal has been part of the Küstenkanal, which connects to the Ems near Dörpen, which was later expanded to become the Dortmund-Ems Canal. The Ems-North Sea Waterways and Shipping Authority, part of the General Directorate for Waterways and Shipping, is responsible for the canal.
