Description

...to the Tauraer Burgadvent (Advent at Taura Castle)


It once ran from Wechselburg to Chemnitz: Saxony’s most expensive branch line. Today, on the last surviving section from Markersdorf-Taura to Schweizerthal-Diethensdorf, you can experience charming railway romance along the breathtaking and legendary Schweizerthal valley. The Advent trips are run with a diesel-powered train.

There are three stops built by the club along the line, which is about 2 km long:

• Bf Markersdorf-Taura
• Hp Alte Mühle (built 2018)
• Hp Amselgrund (built 2008)
• Hp Neuschweizerthal (built 2009)
• Bf Schweizerthal-Diethensdorf

Location
