Wesel Railway Bridge

The Wesel Railway Bridge was a bridge on the Haltern–Venlo railway, built as part of the Hamburg–Venlo railway by the Cologne-Minden Railway Company, and opened on 1 March 1874. Wesel, Germany, was heavily bombed in Allied air raids during World War II and more than 95 percent destroyed. On 10 March 1945 the Rhine and Lippe bridges, among others, were blown up by the Wehrmacht in compliance with Hitler's scorched earth policy that became known as the Nero Decree. The long railway bridge at Wesel was the last Rhine bridge remaining in German hands.
==Bombing==
The Bombing of Wesel in World War II in conjunction with the attacks in support of the crossing of the Rhine enabled the allies to take the town in March 1945. The town was taken quickly with only 36 casualties. Field-Marshal Montgomery said of the bombing: "The bombing of Wesel was a masterpiece, and was a decisive factor in making possible our entry into the town before midnight." 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Bomber Command: No. 57 Squadron )
