The Alsfeld–Niederaula–Bad Hersfeld railway line, known as the Gründchenbahn, crossed the Eifa valley on the Eifa railway viaduct, west of what is now the Alsfeld district of Bad Hersfeld. The section of this line between Grebenau and Alsfeld was opened on April 1, 1916. Constructed in reinforced concrete starting in 1913, the viaduct spans the valley with eight arches over a length of 230 meters. The bridge is 22 meters high. Despite its concrete construction, the viaduct features striking decorative elements in its pilasters, parapet, and oriels above the piers. Passenger service on the 31.3-kilometer (11.3-mile) section between Niederaula and Alsfeld was discontinued on May 25, 1974. Freight service on the Alsfeld–Eifa section (including the railway viaduct) continued until May 28, 1988. The prominent railway viaduct has been out of service since the Eifa-Alsfeld section of the line was closed. However, it is a listed building for technical and historical reasons.

I was there for the second time yesterday and bumped into the owner by chance. Unfortunately, it's no longer a café that's perfect for a pleasant stopover. It's now just an event venue, and the registry office is housed there. Such a shame...

A renovated building with lots of love

Well renovated and preserved for posterity

The ice cream is delicious 😋

The Walpurgis Church in Alsfeld was a Romanesque transept basilica, which was replaced around 1200 by an early Gothic transept basilica with three pairs of pillars. A choir was added in 1393 and a new tower in 1394.

A very nice bike path
