history

After Friedrichshafen had a railway connection from 1847 through the Württembergische Südbahn and Lindau from 1853 through the Allgäubahn, the Royal Württemberg State Railways and the Royal Bavarian State Railways finally opened the gap between the two cities on October 1, 1899, whereby also the reception buildings on the Bavarian side are in the Württemberg architectural style. Between Langenargen and Kressbronn, a 78 meter long steel bridge was built over the Argen , which was built by the Esslingen machine factory and later placed under monument protection. In preparation for electrification, it was replaced by a new steel bridge in 2019.
