The Tesch Tunnel (also Tesche Tunnel ) is a 523 m long railway tunnel in Wuppertal . It is located on the route of the “Wuppertal Northern Railway”, which opened in 1879 and has since been closed, between the Dornap-Hahnenfurth station and the Wuppertal-Lüntenbeck stop . It is one of seven tunnels on the section between Mettmann and Gevelsberg West station .

Although the name of the corridor to which the tunnel refers is Tesche , the name of the tunnel in written mentions differs from the spelling Tesche .
