Lech Canal

Highlight • River

The Lech Canal is a non-navigable, left-bank canal of the Lech River. It branches off from the river near Gersthofen and rejoins the river after passing the hydroelectric power plants in Gersthofen, Langweid, and Meitingen. Also known as the LEW Works Canal, it was built in sections between 1898 and 1922 for power generation and flood protection. It is approximately 18 km long and 28 m wide, and is spanned by seven traffic bridges.

The Via Claudia Augusta is the oldest Roman road in the Bavarian Alpine foothills. The Via Claudia Augusta was one of the most important Roman roads connecting northern Italy with southern Germany. Even in the time of the Roman Emperor Claudius, it was used to cross the Alps by wagon.

To develop the new province, later called Raetia, the route from Feltria/Feltre via Tridentum (Trento) and the Reschen Pass, the Upper Inn Valley, and the Fern Pass to the Lech River was already being expanded. The road was finally completed, made accessible to wagons throughout, renovated, and extended to the Danube under Emperor Claudius.

In the first two centuries AD, the Via Claudia Augusta was the most important connection between the Adriatic Sea, the Po Valley, and the western Alpine foothills. The road was of particular importance for the Roman imperial postal service. As usual, it was monitored by the Benefiziarii, a traffic police force composed of legionnaires assigned to ensure the maintenance of the road and the safety of its users. Over the years, a vibrant infrastructure developed along the road: inns and horse-changing stations (mansiones, mutationes) were established, some of which eventually grew into towns.

Unfortunately, the route of the Via Claudia in the Stettenhofen – Langweid area can no longer be reconstructed. The Lech River, which once had the ability to damage it with its rapid and unhindered flow, is likely responsible for the largely destroyed route in this area.

Highlight • Religious Site

In summer, you can take a break with coffee and cake in the monastery's inner courtyard, and in winter, at Christmas time, there is always a beautiful Christmas market here, the "Engerlmarkt."
