🌉 Former Aartalbahn bridge near Michelbach – connection lost Here, a striking structure of the Aartalbahn once led over the Aar and today's B54 – directly into the Michelbach Tunnel. For decades, trains ran here on their way from Wiesbaden to Diez, past castles, spa towns, and deep forests. Today, the bridge is missing – demolished and disappeared from the landscape. Only trained eyes can still see where the track ran and how it spanned the tunnel. A loss for railway nostalgics and a silent reminder of how quickly history disappears if no one preserves it. 🛤️ Tip: The Michelbach Tunnel is still accessible from the Aartal Cycle Path – anyone interested in the old route should take the time to search for traces. After the narrow bridge, turn right onto the path and continue 100 meters up the slope. You're already at the tunnel entrance.
