Düsseldorf in the bomb alarm: Discovered aviation bomb from the Second World War!

On May 14, 2025,

workers discovered an American 10-hundredthrock bomb from the Second World War on the site of Düsseldorf Airport! The ordnance disposal service immediately gave the all -clear: the dangerous bomb still has to be defused today. But don't panic - the defusing takes place after the last flying start, so that flight operations remain undisturbed.

A safety radius of 600 meters is set up during the defusing, which primarily concerns the airport site. Parts of the B8N between Niederrheinstraße and Edmund-Bertrams-Straße as well as the bank areas of the lakes Suitbertus, Fliedner and Lambertus must be blocked for the duration of the measures. Everyone involved works hand in hand to ensure a quick and safe solution!
