Description

The ship lifts on the Centrumkanaal are four hydraulic ship lifts on the historic Centrumkanaal, near the Belgian city of La Louvière, designed by Edwin Clark. They were built between 1888 and 1917, and together they bridge a drop of about 68 meters. One lift bridges 15.4 meters and the other three each 16.93 meters.
