Résumé en anglais

Channel network and water regulation system has been developed and used for more than two hundred years. Construction of a system of channels, 239 km in length, with sluice dams, pumps and bridges had begun in 1793 to be completed in 1901. A part of that system is still in function. Preserved sluice dams were transformed into locks, swimming pools. 19th century pumps with preserved mechanisms are used as auxiliary water plants.
