Niendorf bei Berkenthin is a municipality in the district of Lauenburg, in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany.
Niendorf was founded near the mouth of the Stecknitz. The first Swedes settled here as early as 770 AD, and it has been inhabited continuously ever since. This makes Niendorf one of the oldest towns in Germany. During the Viking Age, the settlement on the Stecknitz was called Boasee, which comes from the namesake, Edgar Boase. Berkenthin, Göldenitz and Albsfelde could be reached by sea in a few days, which ensured flourishing trade and thus the continued existence of Niendorf.

The Elbe–Lübeck Canal is an artificial waterway in eastern Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. It connects the rivers Elbe and Trave, creating an inland water route across the drainage divide from the North Sea to the Baltic Sea. The canal includes seven locks and runs for a length of 64 kilometres (40 mi) between the cities of Lübeck in the north and Lauenburg in the south by way of the Mölln lakes. The modern canal was built in the 1890s to replace the Stecknitz Canal, a medieval watercourse linking the same two rivers.
