The Oberau Tunnel was the second railway tunnel in Germany after a railway tunnel on the Tollwitz–Dürrenberg Railway, but it was the first tunnel of a normal railway on the continent of Europe. It was driven between 1837 and 1839 on the Leipzig–Dresden railway by Freiberg miners and opened out in 1933/1934. Today only an obelisk commemorates this milestone in German railway history.
