Ecluse de Semuy is a lock on the Canal des Ardennes, a canal that connects the rivers Meuse and Aisne in France. The lock is located near the village of Semuy, in the Ardennes department, in the Grand Est region. There are four locks at Semuy, numbered 23 to 26, which are part of the long descent of 27 locks from Le Chesne to the branch to Vouzier. The lock has a drop of 3.70 meters and is suitable for ships of the Fréycinet type (38.5 meters long and 5.1 meters wide). The lock is operated by the skipper with a remote control that activates the lock. Once in the lock, the skipper pulls a blue pole located inside the lock to complete the operation.
