Hiking

The history of the railway between Görlitz and Dresden began with a state treaty between Prussia and Saxony on July 24, 1843 on a cross-border railway line and the intended connection to the Lower Silesian-Märkische railway line from Görlitz to Kohlfurt. The state treaty contained the condition that the line be completed within four years. The Saxon-Silesian Railway Company, which had investment capital of six million thalers, was founded for the construction of the line. The Saxon government took a third of the company and obliged the company to build a branch line from Löbau to Zittau. [4]

Lt. Komoot you can cross the Wesenitz here - unfortunately there is no bridge here. It's best to choose the "right" side at the castle park ;-)
