Eisenbahnviadukt Hornberg, Railway viaduct in Hornberg, Germany
The Hornberg Railway Viaduct extends 150 meters across the Reichenbach Valley, featuring seven granite-clad arches supported by six pillars and two abutments.
Built between 1924 and 1925, this concrete structure replaced an older steel bridge from 1871 and expanded the railway capacity from two to three tracks.
The viaduct represents a significant engineering achievement of the Black Forest Railway, demonstrating the transportation development needs of early 20th century Germany.
Visitors can observe the 24-meter-high structure from multiple walking paths in the surrounding area, with the Hornberg Tourist Information office providing guidance.
The construction required 14,000 cubic meters of concrete and 3,800 cubic meters of granite stones, making it the only viaduct of its kind on the Black Forest Railway.
