List of locks on the Havel
The list of locks on the Havel includes all existing and former locks in the course of the river and in canal-like tributaries that carry the Havel and are artificially created to improve navigation or for hydrological reasons. Locks in bodies of water whose water is only fed into the Havel were not included in the list.
The Havel is a flowing body of water in northeast Germany and, with a length of 334 kilometers, is the longest right-hand tributary of the Elbe . The direct distance between the source and the mouth is only 94 kilometers. The Havel rises in the south of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania , flows through Brandenburg , Berlin and Saxony-Anhalt and flows into the Elbe at the border between Brandenburg and Saxony-Anhalt.

Remarks
- The locks on the Lower Havel between Bahnitz and Garz are remote-controlled from the Rathenow lock operations center and can also be reached by telephone.
- Although the Havel is a tributary of the Elbe, ships sailing from the Havel into the Elbe are lifted in the Havelberg lock. The lock canal flows directly into the Elbe, shortening the lower reaches of the Havel, which has a lower gradient than the Elbe.
- The barge locks Bahnitz, Molkenberg, Gülpe, Quitzöbel and Gnevsdorf are operated in self-service.
- The Wesenberg locks to Bischofswerder as structures on the Upper Havel waterway in descending kilometers
- The Liebenwalde locks to Spandau without the Friedensthal lock as structures on the Havel-Oder waterway in descending kilometers
- The locks from Brandenburg as structures of the Unteren-Havelwasserstraße in increasing kilometers
- The Krewelin lock was adapted to the Groß-Finow dimension, the usable length of the chamber was 41 meters and it was 6.30 meters wide and has a bulge 16, 80 meters long on one side. The resulting width of 10.30 meters was used to accommodate a tug during the lock process.
