The aim of this paper is to obtain a new unique continuation property (UCP) for the Korteweg–de Vries equation posed on a finite interval. Compared with the previous UCP, we need fewer conditions on the solution. For this purpose, we have to establish a global Carleman estimate for the Korteweg–de Vries equation.
