Walking through the Mountain in the Center of Town: The Schlossberg Tunnel




Entry point on the East side 

The tunnel entry on the East side is reached from Karmeliterplatz through the gate in the middle of the building facing the Schlossberg by walking up the cobble-stone street aptly named "Am Fuße des Schlossbergs" (at the foot of the Castle Rock).

Taking you there with a claim to ephemeral fame: A Streetcar named Great Lenghts



A Streetcar Named Desire * may be more famous, but there is now one of Great Lengths
that should also have a claim to fame.
