Sluice Modřany, Navigation lock in Modřany district, Prague, Czech Republic.
The Modřany lock system contains three sections divided by three-meter pillars, spanning a total length of 87 meters along the Vltava River.
Construction of the modern lock complex took place from 1979 to 1987, requiring an investment of 210 million Czech crowns to enhance river navigation.
The lock facility represents the final component in the sequence of waterworks stretching from the Šumava mountains to Prague on the Vltava River.
The lock operates daily from 7:00 to 17:00 throughout the year, with additional passage available upon request between 17:00 and 22:00.
A 90-meter service tunnel runs beneath the river, protected by a 115-centimeter thick ceiling to maintain structural integrity.
