View of the Remagen Bridge and the Erpeler Ley

Highlight • Historical Site

Ludendorff Bridge - a railway bridge in the city of Remagen (Rhineland-Palatinate), 325 meters long, built during World War I to increase the efficiency of transporting soldiers and war materials to the Western Front. The bridge was designed by Karl Wiener. Its name comes from General Erich Ludendorff.
During World War II, on March 7, 1945, it was captured by the American 9th Armored Division. It was the only intact bridge across the Rhine in Allied hands, and two attempts by the defenders to blow it up ended in failure. The capture of the bridge was called the "Miracle of Remagen". The Germans tried to destroy the bridge using planes and V2 rockets, but without success. On March 17, 1945, the Ludendorff Bridge collapsed due to damage - 30 American soldiers lost their lives.
These events were shown in the 1969 American film "The Bridge At Remagen" directed by John Guillermin.

September 23, 2023,vom Stellpl. Goldene Meile über Bad Breisig mit Fähre nach Bad Hönningen nach Linz und wieder mit Fähre zurück 22km

Nice tour, put on a jacket on the way, it was too cold for me. Unfortunately, on the way back to Linz my battery was empty, which was a shame.

Went to Remagen on the Rhine with the whole family today. The tour went beautifully along the Rhine and we crossed it twice with the ferry. A highlight for the children, of course.
Highly recommended for families because it can be done without any problems.
Stay Tuned and until the days ✌️😎🚴‍♂️
