    The Hammerfort lock is one of the nine dilapidated locks of the Friedrich Wilhelm Canal. Here is still much of the original state of the lock to see.

      Unfortunately no functioning lock on the canal was preserved, but still worth seeing.

        Friedrich Wilhelm Canal. Wiki says:

        The Friedrich Wilhelm Canal, previously the Müllroser Canal, was the first artificial waterway to connect the Oder with the Spree. From Brieskow an der Oder, the canal, which was completed in 1668 and had a length of approx. 27 kilometers, led to Neuhaus an der Spree (living space in Rietz-Neuendorf).

        From the 1860s the canal increasingly reached its capacity limit, so in 1886 it was decided to build the Oder-Spree canal. After the opening of the Oder-Spree Canal in 1891, the Friedrich Wilhelm Canal lost its importance as a waterway. Parts can still be seen today. The lock gates are pretty rotten.
