At 918 meters, it is the longest navigable aqueduct in the world. + g- S# i9 g0 |6 J* ~The Elbe-Havel and Mittelland canals had previously met near Magdeburg but on opposite sides of the Elbe Ships moving between the two had to make a 12-kilometer detour, descending from the Mittelland Canal through the Rothensee boat lift into the Elbe, then sailing downstream on the river, before entering the Elbe-Havel Canal through Niegripp lock. Low water levels in the Elbe often prevented fully laden canal barges from making this crossing, requiring time-consuming off-loading of cargo. $ Y6 h, N6 f+ q L# L 5 J6 V+ I3 ~) Y% X, ~- q3 |tvb now,tvbnow,bttvbConstruction of the water link was started as early as in the 1930s but due to the World War 2 and subsequent division of Germany the work remained suspended till 1997.
