The Lorraines Branch is a canal in central France, some 50 km east of Bourges. It is a disused branch of the Canal latéral à la Loire now serving as a feeder from the Allier River. At one time it carried traffic from the Allier via a circular lock. The Ecluse de Lorraines was 32 km in diameter with three gates providing access from the river on two levels above and below a weir.
