Until 1969 there was a railway line from Porstendorf to Crossen an der Elster. Today leads on the railway embankment along the Gleistalradweg from Porstendorf to Eisenberg. The station building in Graitschen is inhabited and in good condition. Even the station clock is still working, even though there has been no train for almost 50 years. To commemorate the former railway line, a piece of track with buffer stop, signs and old station lantern was set up.

Idyllic old train station, in good condition. Reminiscent of the good old times of the Bürgeler donkey :) Loads nearby by benches also for a little break.
