About :
The Ludendorff Bridge, also known as the Remagen Bridge, was a two-track railway bridge over the Rhine between Remagen and Erpel. It was commissioned by the German Army in 1916, during the First World War, and named after General of the Infantry Erich Ludendorff on May 1, 1918. The inauguration took place on August 15, 1918. ►History Second World War On March 7, 1945, the attempt to blow up the bridge before the approaching Allies failed; attacks by the Luftwaffe and sea fighters or naval task forces (MEK) of the Kriegsmarine were also initially unsuccessful. A short time later, however, it collapsed as a result of war damage. From March 7 until the collapse on March 17, 1945, the enemy was able to ferry 18 regiments across the intact Ludendorff Bridge. Immediately after the Allies took the bridge, American engineers attempted to repair the weakened structure. Three additional pontoon bridges were also built. Arado Ar 234 against the Ludendorff Bridge On 9 March 1945, during an attack on the enemy-occupied Ludendorff Bridge, Arado Ar 234 B-2s from Kampfgeschwader 76 came across strong USAAF units with their Thunderbolt fighters and heavy anti-aircraft fire from the bridge security forces. One aircraft was hit; the pilot attempted to escape over the heights of the Westerwald, but crashed over the Fockenbach valley as a result of the hits and drilled himself four to five metres into the ground. The following were used against the bridge: •9. March 1945: Five "Blitzbombers" hit the bridge. Among the losses was the plane of Sergeant Friedrich Bruchlos (Lebensrune.png February 17th 1913 in Berlin-Pankow), who was killed in action in the Fockenbach valley that day. A memorial was erected to him here in 1975. •March 10th 1945: 20 enemy flights against the bridge •March 11th 1945: Heavy use of force against the bridge •March 12th 1945: 360 German fighter planes and some Me 262s were used against the bridge at Remagen. There were four losses of our own, but also four victories against enemy planes. A German plane went down to 450 meters and dropped a 1000 kg bomb on the bridge, but it did not explode. •March 14th 1945: 21 "Blitzbombers" used against the bridge •March 15th March 1945: Three enemy flights against the bridge •18 March 1945: Five “Blitzbomber” against the bridge
