High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Robert Gerwig (May 2, 1820 – December 6, 1885) was a German civil engineer. Gerwig attended the Grossherzogliches Polytechnikum (now known as Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) where he studied civil engineering, primarily road construction. In 1852 he began collecting clocks; his collection formed the basis for the German clock museum. In the 1860s, Gerwigs attention and professional skills turned toward rail transport. He was one of the principal designers of the Schwarzwaldbahn (Black Forest railway), which avoided steep grades through the use of numerous loops and curved tunnels. He applied the principle again for the Gotthardbahn at the double loop of Wassen. His last rail project was the Hollentalbahn, also in Germany's Black Forest region.
