Railway bridges in Germany

The Pfrimm Viaduct (German: Pfrimmtalviadukt), colloquially also called the Marnheim Bridge (Marnheimer Brücke), was a railway bridge near Marnheim in the county of Donnersbergkreis in the German state of Rhineland-Palatinate. It was built as a stone arch and truss bridge from 1872 to 1874, was 260 metres long and 30 metres high, and carried the Donnersberg Railway from Hungerberg over the valley of the Pfrimm to the Zeller Valley Railway, which is only open at weekends today. The bridge is a protected monument and forms the "Gateway to the Zellertal" (Tor zum Zellertal).
