To prevent the entire canal section from leaking in the event of damage, safety gates have been installed in the canal at Wasbüttel (km 0.97), Osloß (km 9.72), Wieren (km 56.32), and Erbstorf (km 103.72). Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elbe-Seitenkanal

It's a beautiful park with lots of information for all ages. To see the animals, you should attend feedings, as these shy creatures are otherwise in hiding.

It's nice to drive around and view from the outside. I don't know if it's possible to view the inside.

In 1910, a power plant was commissioned next to the sawmill, the first in the Uelzen district after the town of Uelzen. It supplied Wieren with 220 V direct current until 1950, and the neighboring town of Drohe until 1929. Eel fishing was plentiful at the weir between the mill and sawmill. During favorable (thunderstormy) weather and high water levels, up to 50 kg of eel were caught here at night. (Text by Walter Schröder)

The old watermill in the heart of the community has become known as the "Light Miracle of Wieren." First mentioned in 1330, it was an important milling site between Uelzen and Wittingen. In 1788, the mill building was rebuilt on its current site. Previously, the mill had stood on the site where the bridges now cross the floodplains. The front mill pond was also created at this time through the artificial embankment on the west side. The higher reservoir height enabled continuous milling.

The canal was planned in 1965 under the name North-South Canal.[3] The groundbreaking ceremony took place near Artlenburg on May 6, 1968.[4] After eight years of construction, the Elbe Lateral Canal was opened on June 15, 1976, by the then Federal Minister of Transport, Kurt Gscheidle, the Mayor of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg, Hans-Ulrich Klose, and the Minister-President of Lower Saxony, Ernst Albrecht. The main purpose of the canal construction was to create a connection between the Elbe and the Mittelland Canal within the Federal Republic of Germany, as the original connection – the Magdeburg Waterway Junction – was located in the GDR during the division of Germany.
