Donaukanal - Danube Canal. A former arm of the river Danube, now regulated as a water channel (since 1598), within the city of Vienna, Austria. It is 10.7 miles (17.3 km) long.
"...the Danube, which is here divided into several arms. ... The S.W. arm, converted into the Donau-Kanal in 1869-73, flows through part of the city, where it receives the waters of the Wien, now almost wholly bridged and built over, and is protected by locks against floods and floating ice."--Baedeker 1911
