    The Eisenstraße runs from Kettenbach/Michelbacher Hütte (founded around 1650 as Eisenhammer; later Passavant-Werke) south to Taunusstein and is probably a late medieval road on the Eisen to Hahn, and on the route of today's B54 further over the Eiserne Hand Wiesbaden to bring to Schiersteiner Hafen.

      The Historic Iron Road is a fascinating relic from the days of early ironwork and a popular highlight for cyclists in the Taunus Mountains. It impressively combines history, nature, and athletic challenge.
