Nauen-Paretzer Canal
The Nauen-Paretzer Canal or Paretz-Nauen Main Shipping Canal is a canal west of Berlin and provides a connection between the Havel near Paretz and the Great Havelland Canal north of the city of Nauen . The canal is a state waterway or “navigable state water ”. The construction began in 1913. During the First World War , prisoners of war were used in the construction work. It was opened in 1921. Its southern section from Zeestow was included in the Havel Canal , which was built between 1951 and 1952 , and was enlarged and straightened again for this purpose.
The Nauen-Paretz Canal had a width of 20 m and a depth of 1.6 m, so that ships with a carrying capacity of 750 t (Großplauer-Maß-Schiff) could operate.
From the connection to the Great Havelland Main Canal north of Bredow to Zeestow- Luch, the route was mostly new. From Zeestow to Buchow-Karpzow one used the Schöppenrgab, which flowed southeast of the place into the today silted up Wublitzsee . From this lake to the Havel, the Wublitz Canal, the Schanzendammgraben and the Paretz Ziegeleikanal were expanded. In the course of the brick canal, a lock was built, the remains of which still exist, as the Havel Canal is more straightforward here than the canal from 1913.
When the Havel Canal was built, the northern part of the Nauen-Paretzer Canal was separated from this shipping route. The section is assigned to the Great Havelland Main Canal . He is the water of from Falkensee coming blow trench fed. In addition to the culvert under the Havel Canal, there is a pumping station and a descent weir at the water crossing, so that a metered exchange of water in both directions is possible.
