Here is the information board about the history of the development of the Heiligenberg tunnel (a station of the mysterious signs of the times). Construction time was 1844 - 49 and at 1349 m is the longest of 12 tunnels on the route from Neustadt to Kaiserslautern.

The construction of the line caused problems because the watershed between Lauter and Hochspeyerbach had to be crossed between these two places. This required the construction of a 1347-metre-long tunnel.
