Cesse lock on the Junction canal
The Cesse lock on the Junction canal
Cesse lock is the first of six locks as you head down the "Junction Canal" towards Sallèles d'Aude from the Canal du Midi.
The sign, in carved stone, gives the distance to the next lock and to the long pound "Le Grand Bief" (54kms of lock-free canal) the
original name being "La Grande Retenue" of the Midi Canal.
