The History Systematic meadow irrigation to increase hay and forage yields has been documented in the Spessart since 1453 and was still widespread in the stream valleys until the mid-20th century. The first mention of dam irrigation on the Wöhrde can be found in a document from 1663. Source: Information board at the site

The Würzburg–Aschaffenburg railway, also known as the Main-Spessart Railway, is a double-track, electrified main line in Bavaria. It runs from Würzburg Central Station via Gemünden (Main) to Aschaffenburg Central Station. Its importance lies primarily in long-distance and freight traffic, as it connects the Rhine-Main metropolitan area with the Lower Franconian regional center of Würzburg, and beyond with Nuremberg and Munich, as well as towards Austria and Italy. The name derives from the line's route parallel to the Main River and through the Spessart Mountains. Line Construction: The line was licensed by law on May 23, 1846. When the line was opened by the Royal Bavarian State Railways on October 1, 1854, the Main-Spessart Railway was part of the Bavarian Ludwig West Railway from Bamberg via Schweinfurt and Würzburg to Aschaffenburg, up to the then state border with the Electorate of Hesse between Kahl am Main and Großkrotzenburg.
