Rivers and canals run through the country, and the latter were a very important part of the transport infrastructure in earlier times. When building artificial waterways, differences in height always had to be taken into account, and locks were often lined up along these structures. Shipping was only possible with their help. Later, first the railways and then again later the roads took over the task of transporting goods.
