  • Fun fact: There’s a direct Autobahn connection from the Rhine River to the museum where the U-Boot is being transported to.

    But one of the bridges on that route isn’t rated for the U-Boot’s weight. So they had to float it from the Rhine to the Neckar River, rotate it on its side so it’ll fit under a few historic bridges, land it way upstream in a less populated area, remove loads of traffic lights and street signs, and transport it over land on back roads in a huge detour through multiple small town centers.

    Everywhere it crossed there were street festivals with laser shows, fireworks and live music.
