description the four hydraulic boat-lifts on this short stretch of the historic canal du centre are industrial monuments of the highest quality. together with the canal itself and its associated structures, they constitute a remarkably well-preserved and complete example of a late-19th-century industrial landscape. of the eight hydraulic boat-lifts built at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century, the only ones in the world which still exist in their original working condition are these four lifts on the canal du centre.
justification criterion (iii): the boat-lifts of the canal du centre bear exceptional testimony to the remarkable hydraulic engineering developments of 19th-century europe. criterion (iv): these boat-lifts represent the apogee of the application of engineering technology to the construction of canals.
