Schleuse Bevergern, Navigation lock in Hörstel, Germany.
The Bevergern Lock operates on the Dortmund-Ems Canal with a chamber length of 163 meters and width of 9.93 meters, managing an elevation change of 8.1 meters.
Construction of the lock began in 1914 and finished in 1916, marking a significant advancement in German waterway infrastructure during the early twentieth century.

The lock operates daily from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM except on holidays, with a control center in Bergeshövede managing all vessel passages.
This facility forms the southernmost component of the Rheine lock staircase system, which overcomes a height difference of 29 meters across a 29-kilometer stretch.
