オプリヒハイムのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

The "Goldfish" tunnel entrance, station 7 of the Goldfish Trail, marks the entrance to the underground production facilities that operated under the code name "Goldfish" during World War II. This entrance led to the gypsum tunnels, which were used to relocate war-critical armaments production. Aircraft engines were manufactured here under extreme conditions, often using forced laborers and concentration camp prisoners. In the front area, only a guardhouse with a warehouse was visible. An anti-aircraft gun was also installed here. The actual entrance was behind it.

The transfer hall was part of the infrastructure used to transport the factory's materials and products. It was intended to serve as a storage and loading area to efficiently support production. However, it was never fully completed. Today, only its outline and the concrete pillars between the trees can be seen.

This bridge was part of the railway line, which was essential for the transport of materials and workers. It connected key points of the facility and played a central role in the logistics of armaments production.

At the end of the tunnel, which was part of the Heidelberg–Aglasterhausen–Mosbach railway line, the so-called "Finkenhof" station was built. This served as an important transfer station for people and materials transported to the two factories. The station building, which remained standing after the war, is now used as a warehouse. The tunnel entrance and the remains of the station are silent witnesses to the past and recall the logistical importance of this location during World War II.

Water was an essential component for the factory's operation and the supply of the workers. The water supply was ensured by an elaborate system that influenced both production and the living conditions of the forced laborers and concentration camp prisoners.

The kitchen barracks is part of the circular trail that connects the above-ground remains of the factory and sheds light on the history of the arms relocation as well as the living conditions of the concentration camp prisoners and forced laborers. The educational trail is thought-provoking and reminds visitors of dark chapters in history.

This barrack presumably served as an administrative building for the organization of factory work. Today, the foundation remains a silent witness to the past and is part of the stations documenting the history of forced laborers and concentration camp prisoners.

Neuburg Castle is an impressive historic building perched on a cliff that slopes steeply down to the Neckar River. Originally built in the 14th century, it has a rich history. The castle has been rebuilt several times over the centuries and served as a residence for various noble families. In the 19th century, it was restored in the Romantic style and acquired its present appearance. Today, Neuburg Castle houses a hotel and restaurant that delights visitors with its unique atmosphere and the charm of bygone times.
