The Canal des Salines was a planned canal in north eastern France. In its full extent it would have connected the river Sarre at Sarralbe with the river Moselle at Metz, via Dieuze and Château-Salins. Only 4 km were completed, between Mittersheim and Loudrefing.[1] The section between Sarralbe and Mittersheim was replaced by the Canal de la Sarre, built in the 1860s.
