Remagen Bridge

The Peace Museum occupies the remaining western towers of the Ludendorff Bridge, displaying artifacts and documents from World War II military operations.

The original Ludendorff Bridge, constructed between 1916 and 1919, fell into Rhine River on March 17, 1945, after enabling 125,000 Allied troops to cross.

The museum exhibits present military equipment, photographs, letters from soldiers, and personal items that detail experiences during the bridge capture.

Located near Remagen train station, the museum opens from March through October, with specific hours varying by season and guided tours available by appointment.

The museum contains original German demolition switches that failed to destroy the bridge, preserving a critical piece of World War II engineering technology.
