Great information station and rain protection. The lock is reproduced true to the original. Only the location was a bit stupid, since the street has no bike path.

Lock 94 of the Ludwig-Danube-Main Canal in Eggolsheim. The route of the Ludwigskanal, built in 1836-1846 and abandoned in 1950, no longer produces any water in the area of Eggolsheim. (Source Wikipedia)

Lock 94 is accessible because it's no longer waterlogged. It's a beautiful place with many informative panels in a pavilion modeled after the old lock house.

Unfortunately, it's only accessible by bike via a country road without a dedicated bike path.
