Fort Nieuwersluis is a fort of the New Dutch Water Line. It is located in Nieuwersluis aan de Vecht.
Around 1446 the Nieuwe Wetering was dug. It was the connection between the Vecht and the Angstel and an important improvement for inland shipping between Amsterdam, Muiden and Utrecht. Due to the difference in water level between the two rivers, a lock was necessary. This 'Nije Sluse', from which the village of Nieuwersluis takes its name, also gained military importance as an inundation lock for the Old Dutch Water Line.
