Lock 28 is one of the more beautiful locks on the canal and was renovated in 2004. Right at the lock, a staircase leads down to the canal. Nice place for a rest.

Like the other locks along the Old Canal, this lock is also nice to look at because it was a technical masterpiece for the time

Originally, 69 lock and canal keepers' houses stood along the canal route. The lock keepers were responsible for operating the locks as well as for the maintenance and upkeep of the canal and its facilities.
