Graveのおすすめランニングルート

Beautiful view of the impressive bridge.

A beautiful, sturdy bridge. On the Grave side. You can see a bunker. There's a monument next to it with information about the Second World War. Turning the wheel plays a spoken commentary. Definitely worth listening to.

The 82nd Airborne Memorial in Grave commemorates the deployment of the American 82nd Airborne Regiment during Operation Market Garden in September 1944. The airborne troops captured the strategically important bridge at Grave, enabling the Allied advance towards Nijmegen and Arnhem. The memorial is located near the John S. Thompson Bridge and marks the spot where soldiers entered the village and secured the Maas Bridge. It consists of a stone memorial with a plaque and commemorative symbols and is maintained by local historical societies. It is a landmark for walkers and visitors who want to learn more about Grave's wartime history and the crucial role of the 82nd Airborne in the liberation of the region.

The John S. Thompson Bridge, located near Grave, is a strategic bridge over the Maas River, officially known as the Bridge at Grave. It was named in honor of Lt. Col. John S. Thompson, commander of the 82nd Airborne Regiment, which successfully captured the bridge during Operation Market Garden (September 1944). The airborne units captured the bridge virtually intact, preserving a vital link in the Allied advance toward Nijmegen and Arnhem. A small monument commemorates this action stands on the north side. The bridge is therefore an important war memorial in the Maas-Grave area.

Nice

Liberation monument at the bridge in Grave. Column with an aluminum parachute and a plaque with emblems of the 82nd Airborne Division, the British 30th Corps, and the Princess Irene Brigade.

An important crossing where you can connect many routes.

Unfortunately, the road is paved in its entirety. It has become wider, so sharing the space with other road users is not a problem.
