Geography

Italian term or phrase: la chiusa di Borghetto

South of Verona - on the border of Trentino Alto-Adige and Verona.

Is there an English term for "chiusa"?

Thanks in advance for your help!

weir

Explanation:
As a sluice has usually a sluice gate (see Collins definition), I think weir fits if there is no sluice gate
