Zdymadlo Rohatec, Navigation lock and weir on Baťa Canal, Czech Republic

The Zdymadlo Rohatec structure includes a weir with a height of 1.5 meters and a lock measuring 38.5 meters in length and 5.3 meters in width.

The weir section began operations in 1938 with the opening of the Baťa Canal, created to support water management for the Sudoměřice Port operations.

The structure represents a connection point between Czech Republic and Slovakia, featuring a footbridge that allows pedestrians and cyclists to cross between both nations.

The lock maintains water levels between 165.34 meters upstream and 162.84 meters downstream, enabling vessel navigation between Petrov Lock and Hodonín Weir.

Construction of the navigation chamber started in August 2023, extending the Baťa Canal route toward Hodonín port with completion scheduled for autumn 2025.

Location: Sudoměřice

Part of: Baťa Canal
