Düker, Inverted siphon in Augsburg, Germany
The Düker functions as a crossing structure where the Grenzgraben and Siebenbrunner Bach waterways intersect, managing water flow through underground pressure lines.
Built in 1870, this engineering structure revolutionized Augsburg's water management by implementing a separation system between surface water and drinking water supplies.
The structure represents a milestone in German water engineering, demonstrating the technical capabilities of 19th-century infrastructure development in Bavaria.
Located near the Volkssiedlung tram stop on Line 2, visitors can reach the site by public transport or park at Kuhsee Nord for bicycle access.
The system operates without pumps, using water pressure principles to guide clear spring water underneath the Lech River water through connected tubes.
