Opened to traffic in 1907, the canal between Champagne and Burgundy (formerly the Marne-Saône canal) extends over 224 kilometers between Vitry-le-François and Marcilly-sur-Saône. It provides the river connection between the navigable networks of the Seine and the Rhône. It required major works: fixed bridges, swing bridges, footbridges, aqueduct, but also tunnels and artificial lakes for its water supply. He requested the digging of a 4,821 meter tunnel (fourth river tunnel in France) which passes some 50 meters under the church of Balesmes as well as the construction of the 4 lakes of the Pays de Langres. The landscapes crossed as well as its calm make it one of the most beautiful canals in France.
