The Gleesen lock is the northernmost structure of the so-called Rheine lock staircase. On this approximately 29-kilometer long section of the canal, a height difference of almost 29 meters is overcome up to the Bevergern lock. Between Gleesen and Bevergern, there are four more locks: Hesselte, Venhaus, Altenrheine, and Rodde.
