The Ludwig-Danube-Main Canal, a remarkable engineering feat of the 19th century, linked the Danube at Kelheim with the Main at Bamberg. Built between 1836 and 1846, it crossed the European watershed using 100 locks. In Nuremberg, the Ottergraben Canal is a part of this historic structure, overseen by the Water Management Office of Nuremberg.
