Former Ernsthausen-Wambach Station

Highlight • Historical Site

This used to be a stopping point on the railway line from Kirchhain to Gemünden/Wohra, always next to the small river Wohra, hence the name Wohratalbahn. After the Gemünden/Wohra train station, this then merged into the Kellerwaldbahn, which led to Zimmersrode. Zimmersrode is on the main Kassel-Marburg railway (Main-Weser Railway), and then continues via Gießen to Frankfurt/Main. The stopping point was prepared by the “Active Storks” association from Ernsthausen and is lovingly maintained by them. Unfortunately, rail traffic on this route was discontinued in the 1980s.
Another note, the HP Wambach was not a train station, just a stopping point!

Old Wohratal Railway Bridge on Hertingshäuser Straße

Highlight • Bridge

The line opened on May 1, 1914, and closed on December 19, 1981.
The single-track Kirchhain–Gemünden railway, also known as the Wohra Valley Railway, was a branch line in Hesse. It branched off from the Kassel–Frankfurt railway in Kirchhain and ran along the Wohra River to Gemünden, where the Kellerwald Railway joined the line to Zimmersrode, which is also on the Main-Weser Railway. This provided a diversion to the Main-Weser Railway between Zimmersrode and Kirchhain.

Wolfstein Memorial

Highlight • Monument

The listed sandstone has almost completely lost its inscription due to weathering.

The complete inscription has been reconstructed on a separate plaque next to the stone.

It reads:
"Moll's housewife from Gemünden, while she was going to Wohra to attend to business there, was attacked by a wolf and terribly mauled. By the miraculous intervention of God, a traveler rescued her from the wolf's jaws and brought her home to her husband and children. There, with a good mind and true, faithful invocation of God, she passed away peacefully and blessedly in Christ, amidst much pain and prayer, at the age of 54."

According to legend, Mrs. Moll wanted to sell bread in Wohra and was attacked by a wolf on the way. The wolf tore the good woman to pieces. A passing traveler🧳snatched her from the wolf and brought the severely injured🤕woman home, where she died✝️ around noon that day. This is said to have happened on March 6, 1654.

In my opinion, this is a fabrication. There are no known cases of wolves attacking humans in history📖, and I assume that a crime🗡️was committed here. This could not be solved🕵🏼‍♂️, and they simply invented another fairy tale🧚🏼‍♀️with the Big Bad Wolf🐺. Greetings from Little Red Riding Hood🙋‍♀️.
