Elbe–Havel Canal

The Elbe–Havel Canal is a 56-kilometre-long waterway in Germany.

It links Magdeburg, on the River Elbe, with Brandenburg on the River Havel.

[1] Since 2003, the Elbe–Havel Canal has been connected to the Mittelland Canal by the Magdeburg Water Bridge, which crosses above the River Elbe.

The Mittelland Canal provides a connection to the west of Germany.

To the east, the River Havel connects to the Oder-Havel Canal, and the Elbe–Havel Canal thus forms part of a continuous waterway from the west to Berlin and Poland.
