Teltow Canal, Industrial waterway in southern Berlin, Germany.

The Teltow Canal extends for 38 kilometers, connecting the Spree-Oder waterway to the Lower Havel waterway through multiple municipalities in Brandenburg and Berlin.

The construction of the canal started in 1900 under Ernst von Stubenrauch's initiative, with Emperor Wilhelm II inaugurating it in 1906 near Kleinmachnow lock.

The canal path features recreational areas where residents gather for outdoor activities, creating community spaces along the waterfront sections.

The waterway accommodates vessels with a maximum draught of 1.75 meters and includes multiple access points for pedestrians and cyclists throughout its length.

The canal's construction incorporated existing water bodies, including the former Bäke creek bed and several lakes in the Teltow region.
