Experience the Pfaffendorfer Bridge up close: Koblenz opens the construction site for the Day of the Open Monuments
This city tour takes you right into one of Koblenz's most exciting infrastructure projects. The construction site tour of the Pfaffendorfer Bridge combines monument preservation, engineering artistry, and local history into an impressive discovery experience on the Rhine.
A glimpse behind the construction fence
The new construction of the Pfaffendorfer Bridge is one of the largest construction projects in Germany and makes visible how Koblenz is developing. Participants receive exclusive insights into the construction area and learn on-site how planning, technology, and historical responsibility create a new chapter for the city.
History meets present
The Pfaffendorfer Bridge exists in the tension between the cityscape, Rhine panorama, and monument conservation. Since its inauguration in 1864, the bridge has been a part of Koblenz's urban identity and shapes the view between the castle, Rhine gardens, and the UNESCO World Heritage Site Upper Middle Rhine Valley. This connection between past and future makes the tour so special.
