history

To overcome the height difference between the former Oder-Havel Canal and the Malzer Canal, a lock was built in Malz in 1824 and a second lock chamber was added around 1874. It is one of the predecessor waterways of the large shipping route Berlin-Stettin . The locks formed the southern end of the canalised Havel between the Liebenwalde and Malz locks . With the completion of the expansion of the Oder-Havel Canal in 1914, the Malz lock was no longer required for freight traffic. The older lock was closed in 1930 and converted into a weir. In 1968 it was renewed. The lock from 1874 was also converted into a weir in 1975. Ships and boats cannot pass the canal step; today they only serve to regulate the water level. A lock bridge leads over the lower head of the former two-chamber lock. The Malz shipyard is located in the upper water of the lock on the south bank between the Oder-Havel Canal and the disused lock. The water is navigable from the main waterway to the shipyard.
