This spot marks the canal's mouth at the Saône River. The Rhine-Rhône Canal had a turbulent history, with construction interrupted by the French Revolution and finally extending from 1784 to 1832. The lock at the canal's mouth has been renovated. In 2009, a lock keeper's cabin was installed, perched six meters high, to control the arrival of boats.
