Muskau Forest Railway

The project to expand, secure, and enhance the infrastructure of the Muskau Forest Railway will advance the renovation and improvement of the infrastructure of this technical cultural monument. The goal is to ensure the long-term preservation of the forest railway and to further strengthen its importance as a tourist and cultural attraction.

These measures will preserve the historical heritage while simultaneously developing it for the future. The Muskau Forest Railway will thus remain a defining element of regional identity and an important attraction for visitors. The project was supported by the Structural Change Task Force. The total project costs amount to approximately €10,019,304. The project was applied for through the Investment Promotion Act (InvKG).

Muskau Ice Palace

With the Muskau Ice Palace project, ENO plans to build a hostel for approximately 88 guests and 39 caravan pitches at Heideweg 2 in Bad Muskau.

ENO intends to create the necessary structural and infrastructural foundation with this project and to award the subsequent operation through a tendering process. Following the positive vote of the Regional Steering Committee in June 2024, the project will be prepared for application to the Saxon Development Bank by the Structural Change Task Force.

The costs are currently being finalized. The current cost estimate is approximately €14.78 million . Funding of up to 90 percent is planned, but has not yet been approved. Further updates will be provided.
