Railway Jakuszyce-Harrachov border crossing

Railway Jakuszyce-Harrachov border crossing, Railway border checkpoint between Jakuszyce, Poland and Harrachov, Czech Republic.

The Jakuszyce-Harrachov railway border crossing connects two small communities in a mountainous forest region on the frontier. The facility consisted of platforms and checkpoint buildings needed to process passengers and freight trains between the two countries.

In October 1945 a third-category transitional control point, Jacobsthal, was set up on the Jelenia Góra–Tanvald line, with checks carried out at Jakuszyce station. It was closed in autumn 1946 for lack of cross-border traffic. A crossing was created in the early 1990s, open around the clock with freight permitted, but almost no trains ran; it was formally abolished on 14 January 1995.

The crossing's name links Jakuszyce with Harrachov, the station on the Czech side of the line. In practice it saw almost no traffic: apart from a few occasional train runs, no regular service passed through, and border checks were handled by the Border Guard post at Jakuszyce. Since 2010 passenger trains have run again from Szklarska Poręba to Harrachov and Kořenov.

The crossing sits in a mountainous forest area and is reachable by car along small country roads. The region has few facilities nearby, so visitors should bring provisions and prepare for mountain weather conditions.

The crossing was formally abolished on 14 January 1995, yet since 2010 passenger trains have again run from Szklarska Poręba to Harrachov and Kořenov. In practice, apart from a few occasional trains, almost no traffic ever passed through the checkpoint.
