Construction of the eastern section between Dessel and Turnhout canal started in 1844 and was completed a year later. The western section, linking to the Maastricht Canal (subsequently replaced by the larger and more freely navigable Albert Canal) at Schoten was started in 1854 but completed only in 1875.[1]
