Sluizencomplex Eefde, Navigation lock complex in Eefde, Netherlands
The Sluizencomplex Eefde features two lock chambers connecting the IJssel River to the Twentekanalen, enabling vessels to navigate a height difference of 6 meters.
The original lock, completed in 1933, was constructed during the economic crisis by thousands of workers who manually dug 14 kilometers of waterway using basic tools.
The complex includes recreational areas with walking paths, viewing points, and benches, allowing visitors to observe maritime operations while enjoying the surroundings.
The facility processes approximately 70,000 containers annually, facilitating cargo transport between major ports like Rotterdam and Amsterdam to Northern and Eastern Europe.
The new Noordersluis incorporates a segment door that retracts into the lock floor, featuring energy-neutral operations through integrated solar panel systems.
