Blankenstein Lock

Highlight • Monument

The lock system, built in 1777/78, is a listed building and is part of the Route of Industrial Culture. The following can be read on the information board: "In 1835, 21 2/3 silver groschen had to be paid for the lock of an Aake (= ship). In 1866, 327 loaded ships were locked at this lock."
The lock is in close proximity to the Ruhr Valley Cycle Path and the historic towpath. A towpath, sometimes called a towpath, is a riverside path that was used to pull cargo cranes upriver with draft animals. Here on the Ruhr the flat-bottomed ships were called "Ruhraaken" and they often carried coal. With the lock it was possible to make the Ruhr navigable.

Kemnade Towpath

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Especially romantic resting place with a view to the castle Blankenstein. In summer extended lawns and idyllic groynes, which are often used as (unofficial) swimming.
