The Jaffe-Davids Canal is a navigable branch canal around 900 meters long in Hamburg-Wilhelmsburg . It was built in 1909 by the Wilhelmsburger Terraingesellschaft and served to develop residential and commercial areas. The canal is 36 meters wide and three meters deep and runs in a north-south direction. It branches off in the north from the Ernst-August Canal and ends in the south on Rotenhäuser Straße. The Palmin -Werke Schlink were among the best-known industrial companies on the Jaffe-Davids Canal .
