The impressive sandstone bridge structure was built in 1913-1914 for the Gelstertalbahn. The route ran from Eichenberg via Großalmerode to Walburg.
The Gelstertalbahn was opened in 1915, the year of World War II, and was used for passenger and freight traffic until 1973. In 1983, freight traffic was also discontinued.
