Origin and history
The lock of Hachette, located in Maroilles in the department of the North, is an emblematic monument of the 19th century. It bears witness to the hydraulic engineering of the time, with a pavilion built in 1859 to house the lock lift machine. This mechanism, which is still partially preserved, illustrates the technical progress of river navigation in the region.
Classified as a Historic Monument, Hachette lock has been specifically protected. The building housing the entire mechanism was inscribed by two decrees in 1985 and 1987, emphasizing its heritage importance. Its location along the Halage Road reflects its historical role in river transport and the local economy.
The precise location of the lock, at 1 Hachette Lock or Halage Road, is documented in the Merimée and Monumentum bases. These sources confirm its connection to the commune of Maroilles (code Insee 59384), in the Hauts-de-France region. No information is available on its current accessibility or contemporary uses.
