The 212m long and 14m high railway bridge, built in 1898-1899, spans the Pulsnitz valley in a wide arc near Königsbrück and is still impressive many years after the line was closed. The building has been a monument recognized by the state of Saxony since 2002.

ATTENTION: DO NOT ENTER, this is DANGEROUS TO LIFE. RISK OF FALLING. In the rear part there is no floor grating and you have to change sides several times to cross the bridge because of branches protruding in the path and the holes in the floor.

Why not apply for state and EU funds to lead a hiking or cycling path over the bridge (similar to the Eifel at the great Ahrschleife) so that this industrial monument, which is worth preserving, has a new role and can be preserved for interested posterity is a mystery to me ...

Such large steel structures are rarely seen.
