Unlike other locks, the Holtenauer locks do not secure any existing water level differences, but they prevent the current.

The old locks from 1895 are only in operation during the summer months. Numerous pleasure boats can be locked in about 30 minutes from May to September. A colorful range from vintage ships to modern motor yachts is represented.
At that time, the old locks were the largest systems in hydraulic engineering, an impressive 125 meters long, 22 meters wide and 9.80 meters deep.

An area of the lock system that is accessible. Today, this part of the canal is used as a balancing arm. To keep the water level in the Kiel Canal equal.
