Ruins of Unterfalkenstein Castle
Highlight • Castle
A castle site standing on steep rocks, which is also extremely difficult to access from the mountain side. It has a base area of 12 x 12 m.
Dendrological investigations have shown that the castle was built around 1100 and is therefore one of the oldest verifiable castle sites in the Danube valley.
Unterfalkenstein is therefore the predecessor of the upper Falkenstein Castle.

Thierstein Tunnel
Highlight • Structure
The railway line between Inzigkofen and Tuttlingen was built between 1887 and 1890.
4 tunnels had to be blown up and 12 bridges had to be built over the Danube, a pioneering feat.
The Thierstein Tunnel is 250 m long and planned to have two tracks. The holes for the explosive charges had to be drilled by hand. The bridges were delivered prefabricated and riveted on site.
The abutments made of red sandstone were transported from the Black Forest by horse-drawn carriages.

The Tuttlingen–Inzigkofen railway line is a single-track and non-electrified 37.08-kilometer-long railway line in southern Baden-Württemberg. The main line connects the Tuttlingen railway junction with the former Inzigkofen junction station, which is now only a junction where it joins the Tübingen–Sigmaringen railway line. The entire route runs along the young Danube and is therefore classified by Deutsche Bahn as part of the Danube Railway from Donaueschingen to Ulm.
