Rosentalviadukt, Railway viaduct in Friedberg, Germany
The Rosentalviaduct spans 275 meters across the Usa River valley, featuring 24 monumental arches constructed with red sandstone and polygonal pillars.
Built between 1847 and 1850 as part of the Main-Weser railway line, this viaduct remained active until 1982 when a parallel concrete bridge took over its function.
The architectural design draws inspiration from Roman aqueducts, incorporating decorative parapet bands and structured groupings of eight arches supported by protective platforms.
Located between Friedberg and Bad Nauheim, the viaduct stands at a height of 16 meters and remains accessible for visitors interested in railway architecture.
The structure earned the nickname '24 Hallen' due to its sequence of two dozen arches, divided into three distinct groups across its length.
