The lock system was built in 1959. Shortly before that, the place was founded. The bascule bridge was rebuilt in 1989.

This is a former sluice lock. Friedrichschleuse (also the name of the place) The name of the lock goes back to the Prussian King Frederick the Great, who was also Prince of East Frisia from 1744. The floodgates are always open. Lock has historical value. Insignificant for shipping. Numerous restaurants, including Janssen Fisch, invite you to linger 😉👍🍺.

The open sluice lock with a bascule bridge above it allowed the sailing ships with masts free passage into the harbor behind the dyke.
