EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph, taken in 1903, captures the North-Sea Canal, also known as the Kiel Canal or Nord-Ostsee-Kanal in German, as a vital waterway connecting the North Sea and the Baltic Sea. This artificial waterway, which stretches over 60 miles from Brunsbüttel in the North Sea to Kiel in the Baltic, has played a significant role in German history as it enables the movement of the country's warships between the two bodies of water. The Kiel Canal, which is the world's busiest artificial waterway, was built between 1887 and 1895, with the official opening taking place on June 21, 1895. The canal was constructed to provide Germany with a shorter and more direct route for its navy to travel between the North Sea and the Baltic Sea, reducing the need for a lengthy and dangerous journey around Denmark. The image shows a bustling scene of activity on the canal, with several ships passing through the locks, which are visible in the background. The intricate engineering of the locks is evident, with the water levels clearly adjusting to allow the passage of the vessels. The photograph also highlights the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape, with lush greenery and picturesque villages along the banks of the canal. The Kiel Canal has remained an essential transportation route for the German military, as well as for civilian vessels, and continues to be a vital connection between the North and Baltic Seas. This photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the historical significance of the Kiel Canal and its role in German history.
