On September 1, 1847, the first trains of the Lower Silesian-Marcher Railway crossed the newly completed Neisse Viaduct, a 475-meter-long and 35-meter-high structure, from Kohlfurt. Spanning the Neisse Valley with 30 arches, the viaduct also marked the completion of the Dresden-Görlitz line of the Saxon-Silesian Railway, thus establishing a rail connection to Saxony. Its size is unparalleled in Lower Silesia. The total amount of stone required and delivered for the construction of the Görlitz Viaduct was 1,322,255 cubic feet – equivalent to 37,442 cubic meters. The viaduct's architect was Gustav Kießler. Görlitz owes Kießler not only the Neisse Viaduct but also his involvement in the construction of the city's first train station and theater. About the person: Gustav Kießler, architect and politician, born May 12, 1807, in Görlitz; died 1883; full name: Gustav Julius Gotthelf Kießler https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nei%C3%9Fevia

Lake Berzdorf near Görlitz is a popular destination for locals and tourists alike. The north beach is one of the quietest sections of the lake. Here you can swim and relax, while the beach is monitored by the observation tower and lifeguards from the German Red Cross (DRK). Two campsites offer space for caravans and motorhomes. https://www.kuladig.de/Objektansicht/BKM-31000273

It's always interesting to see how life manifests itself in prefabricated housing. It's still somewhat different in Poland than in Germany.

Nothing interesting, just the remains of a pre-war bridgehead. Currently, there is a pedestrian crossing on a pontoon bridge (with the possibility of carrying a bicycle) near this place. It is located in the immediate vicinity of the amusement park on both the Polish and German sides.
