Historiaa<\/h2>\n

M\u00e4\u00e4r\u00e4rahojen puute viiv\u00e4stytti kanavan rakentamista, mink\u00e4 vuoksi vuonna 1919 alkaneet rakennusty\u00f6t saatiin p\u00e4\u00e4t\u00f6kseen vasta 1926.<\/p>\n

Kanavakas\u00f6\u00f6rille rakennettiin asuin- ja toimistorakennus kanavan Niiniveden puoleisessa p\u00e4\u00e4ss\u00e4 sijaitsevaan Kanavasaareen. Samaan yhteyteen rakennettiin asuinrakennus kanavamiehist\u00f6lle. Kanavan ymp\u00e4rist\u00f6\u00f6n suunniteltiin koristeistutukset Saimaan kanavan puutarhurina toimineen Martti Parikan toimesta.<\/p>\n

Kanavat edustivat aikanaan uutta tekniikkaa. Puun sijasta ter\u00e4ksest\u00e4 rakennetut sulkuportit mahdollistivat sulkujen rakentamisen yksikammioisiksi. Lis\u00e4ksi vesi johdetaan sulkuun sulkuporteissa olevien luukkujen sijaan sivumuurien kautta. T\u00e4m\u00e4n johdosta sulkuun ei synny pitkitt\u00e4isvirtausta ja vedenkorkeus voidaan nostaa ja laskea selv\u00e4sti nopeammin kuin luukkuperiaatteella toimivissa kanavissa.<\/p>\n

Kanavaa k\u00e4ytettiin alusta saakka puutavaran uitossa. Puun uittaminen Kymijoen vesist\u00f6ss\u00e4 p\u00e4\u00e4ttyi 2002.<\/p>\n

Kerkonkosken kanava yhdist\u00e4\u00e4 Niiniveden ja Kiesim\u00e4n. Kanava on rakennettu 1919-26. Kanava toimii itsepalvelulla.<\/p>\n
