Jelenia Góra–Żagań railway

Jelenia Góra–Żagań railway is a secondary, single-track, non-electrified line located in southwestern Poland, running from Jelenia Góra to Świętoszów (formally extending to Żagań). It is 89.196 km long and traverses the Lower Silesian Voivodeship, specifically in Jelenia Góra and the counties of Karkonosze, Lwówek, and Bolesławiec.

Initially completed in stages from 1904 to 1909, the line included routes like Jelenia Góra–Lwówek Śląski and Zebrzydowa–Żagań, which became part of the line after World War II. The route features engineering structures like tunnels, bridges, and viaducts. Passenger service between Zebrzydowa and Żagań was suspended in 1991, and in 2004, the section between Ławszowa and Żagań was formally closed.

After a decline in use, between 2014 and 2016, weekend tourist trains called Dolina Bobru briefly operated on the Jelenia Góra–Lwówek Śląski section. Since then, the infrastructure has deteriorated, leading to low operational speeds. In 2019, part of the line near Jelenia Góra was removed to accommodate a new station, Jelenia Góra Zabobrze. The Ministry of Defense announced plans in 2020 to restore the Zebrzydowa–Żagań segment, scheduled for between 2022 and 2026.
