Driewegsluis
Driewegsluis
The Driewegsluis is a rare three-way lock situated on the river De Linde near Nijetrijne, in the southern part of Friesland. Only three locks of this type exist in the Netherlands, making it a notable landmark.
The lock chamber measures 45 meters in length and 14 meters in width, with three separate exits. For the outlet toward the upper reach of the Linde, the chamber incorporates a deliberate bend known as a dwarse kop.
Built with brown brick, granite sill stones, and wooden mitre gates, the structure was rebuilt in 1927 and is recognized as a monument of general cultural-historical and water-management significance.
The lock sits on a quiet island at the boundary with Overijssel, close to the nature reserves Weerribben-Wieden and Rottige Meente.
Boaters can moor at the visitors' harbor on the island, and the former lock keeper's house still stands there alongside a pavilion.
