The PEACE MUSEUM Bridge at Remagen<\/a><\/strong> is located in the towers on the left bank of the Rhine of a fortified bridge, the former Ludendorff Bridge. The railway bridge near Remagen was planned in 1912 and built between 1916 and 1918 during the First World War to transport troops through the Ahr Valley to the Western Front.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remagen came into the spotlight of world history when, on March 7, 1945, a small advance guard of the 9th US Army unexpectedly and unplanned captured the bridge, the last intact Rhine crossing. Previously, the German bridge command’s planned demolition had failed due to a series of mishaps. The Americans seized the opportunity and massively fortified the bridgehead within a few days. On March 17, 1945, the bridge suddenly collapsed during repair work, killing at least 30 American soldiers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The museum documents the events surrounding the capture of the previously undamaged bridge by the US Army on 7 March 1945 at the historic site. Deliberately founded not as a war museum but as a peace museum, it is intended to be a place of learning for international understanding and peace work. As a result, every year the FRIEDENSMUSEUM \u2018Br\u00fccke von Remagen\u2019 e.V. (Peace Museum \u2018Bridge of Remagen\u2019) organises numerous commemorative events marking the end of the Second World War, as well as special exhibitions, guided tours and youth exchange projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The PEACE MUSEUM and the town of Remagen are also members and stations of the Liberation Route Europe<\/strong> (via the Liberation Route Germany), a European cultural route on the history of the liberation from National Socialism in 1944-1945, certified by the Council of Europe, and a partner of FORTE CULTURA.<\/p>\n\n\n
