Willem I-sluis

Amsterdam-Noord (opposite Centraal)52.38377, 4.90778

3.6(36)

Lock between the Noord-Hollands Kanaal and the IJ, right across from Centraal in Amsterdam-Noord. A busy through-route for small commercial craft and pleasure boats alike: the small chamber is still worked by hand, the large one mechanised.
