Schwellenwerk Kirchseeon, Railway sleeper factory in Kirchseeon, Germany.
The industrial complex contains multiple buildings dedicated to wood treatment processes, including steam saws, drying ovens, and impregnation facilities.
The Bavarian Royal Ministry of Trade and Public Works ordered the construction of the railway sleeper factory in October 1868, with operations beginning in 1869.
The factory represents the industrial revolution period in Bavaria, demonstrating the expansion of railway infrastructure through specialized manufacturing facilities.
The facility implemented various wood preservation methods, such as mercury chloride impregnation and creosote treatment, to enhance railway sleeper durability.
The site features submerged reinforced concrete tanks, installed in 1909, which facilitated the loading and unloading of wooden materials for treatment.
