        The Rhine-Main-Danube Canal (MDK) is a 171 kilometer long federal waterway in Bavaria, which connects the Main at Bamberg with the Danube at Kelheim.

        The canal was built between 1960 and 1992. With him a continuous large shipping route (called Europe Canal) was created between the North Sea near Rotterdam and the Black Sea near Constanţa (Romania), which runs over the Rhine, Main and Danube. Therefore, the channel is also known as the Rhine-Main-Danube Canal (RMD channel). Regionally he is often referred to as a distinction from his predecessor Ludwig-Danube-Main-Kanal simply Neuer Kanal. The 17-kilometer peak, which crosses the low mountain range Franconian Alb as the European main watershed Rhine-Danube, is 406 m above sea level. NHN the highest point of the European waterway network.
