Mittelland Canal - Mittelland Canal (English name)
A 330 km long canal stretching from the Bergeshebede on the Dortmund-Ems Canal in northwestern Germany to Magdeburg in central-eastern Germany. This canal makes it possible to navigate between the Rhine and the Elbe. At Anderten in Hanover, one of Europe's largest locks can be found, raising the water level by 15 m, allowing ships of 1,000 tons to pass through. Plans to link the Rhine and Elbe were made in the mid-19th century, but the link to Hanover was completed in 1916, and to Rothensee in 1938.
