The hydraulic canal lift at Arques

This 19th century canal lift built on the Neufosse canal replaced five locks and reduced the transit time from an hour to 20 minutes. It was superseded in 1964 by a single concrete lock a short distance away. The lift was scheduled to be dismantled but a local society fought for its preservation.
