The lock was built in about 1674 to prevent flooding from what was then the Zuiderzee and to serve in the inundation system of the Oude Hollandse Waterlinie. In the 19th century, the Muiden lock complex was modified, whereby locks and quays were renewed. 3 lock chambers are located next to each other in a brick complex. The largest chamber is 49 x 7.7 mtr. The iron swing bridge dates from 1870
