English: The Landwehrkanal connects the upper part with the lower part of river Spree. It was built between 1845 and 1850 and flows through Berlin-Charlottenburg, Berlin-Tiergarten and Berlin-Kreuzberg (main part). In Kreuzberg a long part of the Landwehrkanal is accompanied by the Berlin U-Bahn, which runs here as an elevated railway. See also: Category:Bridges over the Landwehrkanal in Berlin
Deutsch: Der Landwehrkanal aus den Jahren 1845/1850 verbindet die obere Spree mit der unteren Spree und durchfließt die Stadtteile Charlottenburg, Tiergarten und Kreuzberg (Hauptteil). In Kreuzberg wird ein langes Teilstück von der U-Bahnlinie 1 begleitet, die hier als Hochbahn verläuft. Die Ausbuchtung des „Urbanhafen“ ist ein historisches Relikt eines rückgebauten Hafens. Am Urbanhafen zweigte der ehemalige Luisenstädtische Kanal ab, der 1926 zugeschüttet wurde. Siehe auch: Brücken über den Landwehrkanal
