The Old Signal Box was built in 1899 at the intersection of the railway lines Alzey – Bingen and Alzey – Mainz. It was decommissioned in 2007. Today, train control is handled by electronic signal box technology. The Old Signal Box Armsheim Nord (An) is the only one of its kind (mechanical Stahmer signal box technology) in Rheinhessen, where all technical facilities of the block and lever systems, as well as the tensioning system, are completely preserved. Thus, visitors can closely experience how the work of a pointsman was until 2007 by operating the levers in the signal box, which is to be developed into an interactive museum signal box step by step.
