Amberg am Rhein-Main-Donau-Kanal

Über die Jahrhunderte wird immer wieder geträumt von einer schiffbaren Verbindung zwischen dem Schwarzen Meer und der Nordsee. Maximilian I., König von Bayern, bringt mehrere Trassen ins Spiel. Eine davon führt zur Vils.

Teilstück des Ludwig-Donau-Main-Kanals mit Schleusenwärterhäuschen südlich von Neumarkt.
