The town of Königstein is famous for the military fortress that towers over it, but it is also known to all model railway lovers. There is a large H0 model railway yard, modeled after the Elbe valley, through which the Děčín-Draždany railway line runs. The model landscape shows the section of the line between Bad Schandau and Obervogelgesangen and Bad Schandau - Sebnitz. The model has over 400 meters of track, over 120 switches and more than a hundred traffic lights. There are more than forty trains running along the track. The operation is situated between the years 1950 - 1976 and it is thus possible to follow the train of locomotives on the international express trains at Bad Schandau station.
