Stelling van Amsterdam - Willem III-sluis
The Willem III-sluis was built around 1864 next to the Willem I-sluis in Amsterdam to handle increased canal traffic. It featured mid-chamber gates for efficient passage of smaller vessels. Though no longer in use, it marked a key upgrade in Dutch lock design and led to the renovation of the older Willem I-sluis.
