The lock Leerstetten was built in the period from 1974 to 1980 as part of the construction of the federal waterway Main-Danube Canal and put into operation on 27 September 1985. It is designed as a savings lock with three savings basins south of the lock basin. As with the sluices in Hilpoltstein and Eckersmühlen, the Schleusungs drop is 24.67 meters and thus has the largest drop height ever built in Germany. de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schleuse_Leerstetten

You can drive over the bridge and look at the Sparbecken, in the downhill running the water from the lock basin, to be used again at the next uphill. The Rother Triathlon was already over this bridge ...
