The Arzviller Boat Elevator / Saint-Louis-Arzviller inclined plane in France - Cruising on the Canal de la Marne au Rhin aboard Hotel Barge Panache. Our hotel barges gently introduce you to some of Europe's finest scenery, fascinating history and local culture. The Saint-Louis-Arzviller Boat Elevator In 1964, the design for a transversal inclined plane was chosen by an international contest as the system best adapted to the topography of the site. Completed in 1969, the Saint-Louis-Arzviller inclined plane carries boats and canal barges from the upper to the lower canal, traveling up a 41% slope, dealing with a difference in level of 146 feet with a horizontal length of 422 feet. Boats are raised between different levels by sailing into giant water-filled tanks, or caissons, which have wheels on the bottom and watertight doors at each end and which are perpendicular to the slope. These are then drawn up or down hill on the rails by means of cables being pulled by a stationary engine. When the caisson has reached the top or bottom of the slope, the doors are opened and the boat leaves. The inclined plane of Saint-Louis-Arzviller is able to carry 39 barges per day. Each journey is made in four minutes, making a total transportation time of twenty minutes between going in and going out. Panache The 12 passenger Panache is of classic Dutch design.
