Schleuse Kannenburg

The Kannenburg Lock connects the Templin waterways to the Upper Havel River, enabling vessels to navigate between different water levels.

The initial lock construction at this location dates back to 1795, followed by a significant reconstruction in 1906 to meet transportation requirements.

The lock serves as a central point for water-based travel in Brandenburg, connecting multiple lakes and waterways for recreational and commercial vessels.

The lock measures 41.65 meters in length and 7 meters in width, operating through a semi-automatic system controlled from the Niederfinow control center.

After a complete renovation in 2023, the lock now processes approximately 7,500 boats annually through its modern self-service operating system.
