Schwarzerden Station (Ostertalbahn Museum Station)

Highlight • Historical Site

The route of the Ostertalbahn, which begins in Ottweiler, ends at Schwarzerden station. However, the route is only used irregularly in museum railway operations.

For railway nerds there are many old wagons and locomotives to be seen on the sidings.
