Bolzum lock, Lock system in Hanover region, Germany.
The Bolzum Lock features a chamber width of 12.5 meters, a chamber length of 140 meters, and a dispensing height of 8.5 meters for vessel navigation.
The construction project lasted from 2003 to 2007, commissioned by the Department for Extension of the Mittellandkanal to accommodate larger motor vessels.
The facility represents a meeting point where visitors observe the technical operation of water level management and vessel passage through the lock system.
The lock enables ships to navigate through different water levels on the branch waterway to Hildesheim, supporting regional transportation and commerce.
The original lock structure remains preserved as a technical historical building while a new bridge passes through the outer gates.
