    Hiking

    The train station of Frankenstein is located on the Ludwigsbahn. The formerly used reception building is now a listed building. The building resembles a castle and does not really fit in with the small town of Frankenstein, it looks architecturally very sophisticated. The railway pioneer Denis lived temporarily in the neighboring village of Diemerstein, where his villa is located.

    Hiking

    Ideal starting point for tours around Frankenstein.
    Looks like a "lost place" (broken windows), but is a cultural monument protected by a steel fence.

    Train station, two-and-a-half-storey late-classical hipped roof building with gable projection, probably 3rd quarter of the 19th century.
