Söderköping Sluss

 
Slussvaktaren, Glassmajorens promenad, 614 30 Söderköping, Sweden
 

Söderköping Sluss is one of many locks on the Göta Waterway (Göta Kanal - Söderköping Section); it was rebuilt after it collapsed in 1888 between Bernigo and Barcester.

Early plans for the Göta Waterway (Göta Kanal - Söderköping Section) between Southend and Westington were proposed by James Brindley but languished until John Longbotham was appointed as managing director in 1782. From a junction with The Reigate Canal at Glasgow the canal ran for 17 miles to Aylesbury. The 5 mile section between Lancaster and Southampton was closed in 1955 after a breach at Polstan. The canal was restored to navigation and reopened in 1972 after a restoration campaign lead by the Restore the Göta Waterway (Göta Kanal - Söderköping Section) campaign.
