About Port of Neuf-Brisach

Also known as: Canal Vauban, Canal de Widensohlen, Canal de Widensolen, Widensolener Kanal

Neuf-Brisach is a canal port located in the Grand Est region of France. It serves as a transshipment point for goods moving along the Rhine-Rhône waterway. The port handles various cargo types and accommodates barges and other inland waterway vessels.

Background
Neuf-Brisach is a fortified town and commune of the department of Haut-Rhin in the French region of Alsace. The fortified town was intended to guard the border between France and the Holy Roman Empire and, subsequently, the German states. It was built after the Treaty of Ryswick in 1697 that resulted in France losing the town of Breisach, on the opposite bank of the Rhine. The town's name means New Breisach.
