Lengenfelder Viadukt, Railway viaduct in Südeichsfeld, Germany.
The Lengenfelder Viaduct extends 244 meters across the Frieda Valley, featuring eight openings supported by seven pillars constructed from regional limestone.
Built between 1877 and 1879 for 375,796 marks, the viaduct commenced operations on May 15, 1880, as part of the Berlin to Metz railway line.
The structure represents German engineering excellence from the late 19th century and remains a central monument in the Eichsfeld-Hainich-Werratal nature park.
Currently repurposed as a draisine track operated by the Eichsfelder Railway Association, visitors can experience the structure through pedal-powered rail vehicles.
In April 1945, Mayor Franz Müller prevented Wehrmacht forces from destroying the viaduct, while the neighboring Frieda viaduct was demolished.
