During the work, incredible finds were discovered — old radios, shopping carts, a bunch of bicycles, scooters and even motorcycles were lying at the bottom of the canal.
The Canal Saint Martin is located in the heart of the French capital in the 10th municipal district of the city on one of the most prestigious streets of Paris.
In recent years, it has been a tourist attraction and a place for walking. Locals believe that it is thanks to its popularity that the channel has turned into a kind of dump.
It took three months to drain the canal.
A scooter was found among the unusual finds.
The canal was last drained and cleaned in 2001.
