Savoyeux Tunnel

Highlight • Other

The Savoyeux underground, also called the Savoyeux vault, was completed in 1843. It allows boats to pass from the Petite Saône to the Saône.

The tunnel is 642 meters long and 6.55 meters wide.

There was no towpath in the tunnel, which forced the horses to go around the structure. The boatmen therefore had to move forward by pulling on the chains present along the walls of the underground.

Tunnel de Savoyeux

Highlight • Structure

The Tunnel de Savoyeux is an underground canal that diverts the Saône between two of its meanders near Savoyeux, in Haute-Saône, France. It was completed in 1843 and made it possible to sail the small Saône to the Saône. It is 642.5 meters long and 6.55 meters wide. It has no path for pulling the boats, so the skippers had to pull the boats with chains attached to the walls of the tunnel. It also has a lock at the end of the tunnel
