little info from the net:

The barrage Drakenburg is a barrage on the Weser in Drakenburg near the Lower Saxony town of Nienburg/Weser. It consists of a weir, an integrated small pram lock and a hydroelectric power station. The Drakenburg lock for shipping on the Weser is located in a lock canal that shortens several river bends

Weser Ferry Schweringen

Highlight • Structure

While this "exotic" Weser crossing was primarily used in the past by farmers from Schweringen with agricultural land east of the river to handle necessary agricultural transport, nowadays it is increasingly cyclists and other tourists who appreciate the opportunity for a "romantic" river crossing.

The Weser ferry in Schweringen is a cable ferry powered by an electric motor (mains connection).
