▲'''Noteć''' ({{Lang-de|Netze}}, {{Lang-la|Natissis}}) is a [[river]] in central [[Poland]] with a length of {{convert|388
==Course==
It rises in the [[Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship]] and flows through Lake [[Gopło]] and the town of [[Inowrocław]]. It reaches the voivodeship of [[Greater Poland Voivodeship|Greater Poland]] in the historic [[Pałuki]] region south of [[Piła]]. Further down in [[Lubusz Voivodeship]], it empties into the Warta at [[Santok]] near [[Gorzów Wielkopolski]]. The river is usually subdivided into an upper part (Noteć Górna), running from its source to [[Nakło nad Notecią|Nakło]], and a lower part (Noteć Dolna) from Nakło to its mouth into the Warta River. At Nakło, the [[Bydgoszcz Canal]], built in 1773/74, connects the Noteć River with the [[Brda]] river, a tributary of the [[Vistula]], at [[Bydgoszcz]].
The lower sections down from the mouth of the [[Drawa]] (near [[Krzyż Wielkopolski]]) are located within the broad Toruń-Eberswalde ''[[Urstromtal]]''. These large [[wetland]]s, with only two historic river crossings at Santok and [[Drezdenko]], are sparsely populated.
Most portions of the Noteć are navigable. Several locks and dams connect the Vistula and the Warta/Oder waterways.
==History==
In medieval times, the impenetrable swamps of the lower Noteć River formed the border between the [[Kingdom of Poland (1025–1385)|Kingdom of Poland]] and the lands of the [[Pomeranians|Pomeranian]] tribes on the [[Baltic Sea|Baltic]] coast. Disputed for centuries, the fortresses of Santok and Drezdenko finally were acquired by Margrave [[Conrad, Margrave of Brandenburg-Stendal|Conrad of Brandenburg]] on the occasion of his wedding with [[Constance of Greater Poland|Constance of Poznań]], daughter of the [[Piast dynasty|Piast]] duke [[Przemysł I of Greater Poland]], in 1260.
After several unsuccessful attempts by the Polish Piasts to regain control, the area along the lower Noteć was finally incorporated into the Brandeburg ''[[Neumark]]'' region. For centuries, the border with the Greater Polish [[Poznań Voivodeship (14th century to 1793)|Poznań Voivodeship]] ran between Drezdenko (''Driesen'') and Krzyż upstream in the east. Under the rule of Elector [[Joachim III Frederick, Elector of Brandenburg|Joachim III Frederick of Brandenburg]] from about 1603, the fortress was rebuilt and further settlements were erected within the wetlands. First plans for a large-scale [[drainage]] and [[land improvement|land amelioration]] were developed under King [[Frederick William I of Prussia]] in 1738/39, though not carried out until after the [[Seven Years' War]] in 1763.
After the [[First Partition of Poland]] in 1772 the adjacent Greater Polish lands up the river were annexed by the [[Kingdom of Prussia]] as the [[Netze District]]. The territory, created by the Prussian administration, was again ceded to newly established [[Duchy of Warsaw]] in 1807, but fell back to Prussia by resolution of the [[Congress of Vienna|Vienna Congress]] in 1815.
