Hertogswetering, Historic brook in North Brabant, Netherlands

The Hertogswetering extends for 32.5 kilometers from the Raam near Grave to Gemaal Gewande in the municipality of Oss.

The construction of this waterway took place between 1300 and 1310, following the path of an ancient dried-up riverbed of the Maas River.

The Hertogsgemaal pumping station now functions as a museum, presenting the evolution of water management systems in the Netherlands.

The water system drains approximately 10,000 hectares of land through connections with smaller waterways including the Kleine Wetering and Munsche Wetering.

The waterway passes under the Burgemeester Delenkanaal through a specialized siphon system constructed during the 1960s.
