Nesserlander Schleuse, Maritime lock in Emden, Germany

The Nesserlander Schleuse connects the inner port of Emden with the outer waters of Borkum Harbor through a 180-meter-long channel system.

The lock emerged in the 18th century as a fundamental component of Emden's port infrastructure, enabling maritime trade development in East Frisia.

The lock stands as a testament to German engineering excellence, representing centuries of maritime knowledge in the North Sea region.

Vessels must register three hours before passage through VHF channel 13, with operating hours from 07:15 to 18:00 for recreational shipping.

The lock maintains a depth of minus 7 meters below normal zero and a usable width of 18 meters to accommodate modern coastal vessels.
