The Charleroi-Brussels Canal, built in 1827, is a crucial waterway connecting Brussels and Charleroi. The canal starts at the Sambre River and ends at the Willebroek Canal, connecting Charleroi, La Louvière, Mons and the ports of Brussels and Antwerp. It bridges a height difference of 127 meters with the help of 55 locks and a tunnel. It flows through the Walloon Region, the Flemish Region and the Brussels-Capital Region. The most notable modernization was the commissioning of the 'Ronquières Inclined Plane' in 1968, which reduced the number of locks to 10.
