Tikhvinskaya water system
Tihvinskaya water system was one of the waterways connecting the Volga with the Baltic Sea, and specifically the Mologa River with Syas River. In terms of the current administrative division of Russia, the waterway belongs to Vologda and Leningrad Oblasts.
It was first conceived by Peter the Great, but construction started only in 1802. Tihvinskaya water system was built for the passage of middle-sized ships in the early 19th century and functioned until the middle of 20th century. Construction of railways and the movement of ships along the Svir River increased competition, which led to the closure of the Tikhvin system.
