    The New Canal led from Lichtwasser partly underground through the 419 m long Hirschbergen Tunnel to Hirschbergen. Here you will find the beautifully designed "upper portal of the tunnel".

      The Schwarzenbergsche Schwemmkanal is a 50-kilometer-long wood-flooding system that was built in the 18th century and used commercially up until the 20th century.

        not only this canal is an ingenious masterpiece, but also the tunnel that was dug here in order to master a slight rise. Both tunnel portals are finely executed and definitely worth seeing. You can't walk through it, but you can look in a bit and imagine what an achievement that was.
