The Angelroda viaduct, an impressive example of 19th century engineering, majestically spans the valley of the Zahme Gera. Its delicate steel arches rise elegantly towards the sky.

Great railway bridge in Angelroda. Was completely overhauled in 2012. First construction in 1876, conversion in 1905 for larger loads.
