The Berching lock was built between July 1987 and July 1991 as part of the construction of the Main-Danube Canal federal waterway. It is designed as a savings lock with three savings basins west of the lock basin. The lock has its own command post, but has been remotely operated from the WSV district headquarters in Dietfurt since 2007. The Dietfurt, Riedenburg and Kelheim locks are also remotely controlled from there. From 2024, twelve locks will be controlled from the Nuremberg control center, and later all 16 canal locks.

The town of Berching calls itself a "jewel of the Middle Ages" and is known for its very well-preserved old town walls with four town gates and thirteen towers. The Chinese Tower, the Powder Tower and the Neumarkt Gate Tower in the oldest part, the so-called suburb, are worth seeing. Source: Wikipedia A complete city wall, colorful houses and mighty warehouses are evidence of the heyday in the Middle Ages. A modern museum is dedicated to the city's most famous son, the composer Christoph Willibald Gluck. The Ludwig-Danube-Main Canal from the 19th century is also worth seeing: the technical monument is now an idyllic destination. https://www.berching.de/gehenswuerdigkeiten/
