Charlottenburg lock, Navigation lock in Charlottenburg district, Germany

The Charlottenburg Lock spans 152.5 meters in length and features two chambers that manage water levels on the Spree River in Berlin.

The initial barrage construction on the Spree River in Charlottenburg occurred between 1883 and 1885, with toll implementation starting in January 1902.

The lock represents a central element of Berlin's waterway heritage, connecting the Mühlendamm section to the downstream Spree confluence with Havel.

The lock chamber operates with both sector and stem gates, requiring approximately 15 minutes for a complete cycle through the navigation system.

The facility incorporates dedicated waiting areas for commercial vessels and recreational boats, alongside northern access paths for pedestrian circulation.
