    The old Aper Tief ran here on the south side of the old dike and was replaced in 1845 by the canal parallel to the state road and railway.
    The railway line was completed in 1869.

    The Alte Aper Tief refers to the original, historical riverbed of the Aper Tief in the municipality of Apen in the Ammerland district of Lower Saxony. The natural riverbed was already replaced in 1845 by extensive construction work with an artificial, straight canal along the road to Augustfehn.
