PART B_2

On July 27, 1848, the construction of the Semmering Railway began. There were 5,000 workers at the beginning, but they later increased to 20,000 workers because they had to do the dangerous construction work by hand. On October 27, 1850, fourteen workers were killed because of falling rocks. Also, some 750 workers were killed because of typhoid and cholera. Despite the difficulties, Ghega’s ideas still became a reality. He incorporated the latest technology and his concern for the natural environment. He used bricks and stones instead of iron and steel to build structures. The waste materials were also used to build stations along the railway.

The first trials were run in October 1853 and in July 1854. In just two hours, they could finally cross the Alps. The Semmering Railways made life more convenient and enhanced the beauty of the Alps which attracted many tourists.

150 years later, the railway remains as an important transportation route and a sightseeing destination where visitors can enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. For Ghega’s vision that architecture should be in harmony with the natural environment, he was knighted in 1851. In 1998, UNESCO named the Semmering Railway as a World Heritage Site.
