The Dzierżoniów Śląski–Radków railway was a historic local railway in present-day Lower Silesian Voivodeship in south-western Poland. Built under German administration as the Eulengebirgsbahn, it connected Dzierżoniów (then Reichenbach im Eulengebirge) with Radków (then Wünschelburg) by way of Pieszyce, Bielawa, Srebrna Góra, Nowa Ruda-Słupiec and Ścinawka Średnia. The company was called Eulengebirgsbahn.
With a total historical length of 54.9 km, the line was one of the most unusual local railways in Lower Silesia because it crossed mountainous terrain and included an Abt rack railway section between Srebrna Góra and Nowa Wieś Kłodzka near the Silver Mountain Fortress.
The historic route no longer functions as a continuous railway. Its western and eastern remnants correspond mainly to modern PKP line no. 341 (Dzierżoniów Śląski–Bielawa Zachodnia), line no. 318 (Bielawa Zachodnia–Srebrna Góra) and line no. 327 (Ścinawka Średnia Dworzec Mały–Radków), while the central mountain section toward Nowa Ruda and Ścinawka Średnia has long been out of regular use.
