"Treasures of the World – Heritage of Humanity" (a German-language television series) honors special sites from all eras and continents in over 250 episodes with short film clips. Despite their diversity, they have one thing in common: they have been declared UNESCO World Heritage Sites. One of the episodes presents the Canal du Midi. This is a connection – desired for centuries, but also considered technically impossible – between the southern coast of France on the Mediterranean and the expanse of the Atlantic Ocean.
