라 루비에르 최고의 MTB 라이딩 경로

The old elevators have been renovated. A must-see. If you're on gravel, stay to the left of the bank in the direction you're traveling on the gravel.

There is one bank with a tarmac path and one bank with a more natural path.

Here we find ourselves at a modern technical structure of almost unimaginable dimensions. This enormous facility – like probably every project of this magnitude – has two aspects: Some may be in awe of the engineering that made it possible to plan and build this gigantic structure at the end of the 20th century. Others may be more concerned with the enormous intervention in nature that was necessary to realize the project and may doubt its usefulness. However, such a conflict of interest is by no means only a sign of the times, for the monumental – some might prefer the term monstrous – structure is the modern descendant of a series of significantly smaller ship lifts that were built in earlier times – and have now even been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site as an industrial monument. Both the old facility and its modern successor are presented in a 15-minute feature (in German) in the series "Treasures of the World - Heritage of Humanity."

This series of boat lifts on the Canal du Centre is an extraordinarily impressive example of the engineering skills of previous generations. Even back then, people found solutions to seemingly intractable problems using comparatively simple means: namely, how to overcome a significant difference in height with a ship, a problem that was impossible to achieve using previous methods of simple lock construction. This structure has therefore quite rightly been recognized as an Industrial World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

"Among all creatures, the Virgin Mary is the masterpiece of the Most Holy Trinity: in her humble and faithful heart the Lord prepared for himself a worthy dwelling place to fulfill the mystery of salvation. Divine love found its perfect counterpart in her, and in her womb the only begotten Son became man. Let us turn to Mary with childlike trust so that with her help we can grow in love and make of our lives a hymn of praise to the Father through the Son in the Holy Spirit." (Pope Benedict XVI, Joseph Ratzinger)

This series of boat lifts on the Canal du Centre is an extraordinarily impressive example of the art of engineering from previous generations. Even back then, people found solutions to problems that at first glance seemed insoluble using relatively simple means, namely how to overcome a considerable difference in height with a ship that was not possible using the previous methods of simple lock construction. This construction has therefore quite rightly been recognized as an industrial world cultural heritage site by UNESCO.

Lift No.4 on the old Canal du Centre at Le Roeulx is a beautifully preserved boat lift from the early 20th century, and a masterpiece of industrial architecture. Made from steel and sheet metal, this historic lift lifts boats between different water levels and remains an impressive sight in the landscape. A visit to this unique UNESCO World Heritage site offers a fascinating insight into the engineering feats of yesteryear and the rich history of Hainaut’s waterways.
