The Amerongen Dam Complex is a hydraulic engineering structure in the Netherlands. It was built in the Lower Rhine near Amerongen according to CEMT class Va. This Amerongen weir complex is part of the Hagestein / Amerongen / Driel ensemble of weirs. The design of this ensemble was started in 1958 in the context of improving water management in the Northern Netherlands and navigability of the Lower Rhine. There is no relationship with the Delta Works. These complexes first consist of a weir and sluices. A fish ladder is added later. Only in Hagestein was the weir also equipped with a hydroelectric plant from the design stage onwards. This power station provides enough energy for the 3 weir complexes together.
